Adopting in New Zealand — common questions
Is it free to adopt on Pet Rescue NZ?
Browsing and enquiring are always free. Some owners ask a small rehoming fee, which is shown on every listing.
How do I know a listing is genuine?
New listings are screened before they go live. Always meet the pet in person, and never pay a deposit, courier or transport fee before you do.
Can I meet the pet before deciding?
Yes. Arrange a meet and greet with the owner. Most owners are happy to do a trial visit.
