About Safe Cat, Safe Wildlife

A join initiative between ZAA and SPCA New Zealand

 

The Zoo and Aquarium Association (ZAA) has teamed up with SPCA New Zealand and vets to help you keep your cat safe and happy. ZAA represents zoos, aquariums, sanctuaries, and wildlife parks across Australasia, who operate at the highest standards of animal welfare. Animal welfare is an over-riding focus for all zoos, and that extends to the millions of cats in the households of our visitors and their communities.

ZAA is pleased to work alongside several of our animal welfare accredited members to bring you Safe Cat, Safe Wildlife:

  • Hamilton Zoo
  • Kiwi Birdlife Park
  • Kiwi North
  • National Aquarium of New Zealand
  • Nga Manu Nature Reserve
  • Orana Wildlife Park
  • Wellington Zoo

Along with your help, we aim to build a community of cat owners who have the knowledge to provide their cat with the longest and happiest lives possible by keeping them safe and enriched at home.
