The new HUHA shelter at Haywards – it’s being built, it was never more needed than now!

One thing stays the same for HUHA – the need. The size of the need doesn’t stay the same though – this just continues to increase each year.

Over the last couple of years, to address the costs and the demands and be more efficient, we have bought 157 acres of land on the Haywards Hill. Yes, a big, brave thing. 

Is it easy? Is it finished? No – it’s hard work and it’s not finished – but it will be. The 157 acres will be a home for horses, farm animals, cats, dogs and bird rehabilitation. It will be our one stop HUHA place of care. We own it so everything we do and every cent spent on it, stays there. Ground levelling has been done for the horses and farm animals, dogs and cats area. Our horses have now moved in. The dream becomes reality.

With planning and fundraising for Haywards, we have had to bring our A game to everything we do – because the rescue continues and we can never be too tired or too distracted or drop the ball with that. We do this with the community – please join the family and be a part of it.

New Zealand’s leading ‘no-kill’ animal shelter

Helping you help animals (HUHA) is dedicated to teaching empathy to the community and providing shelter for those less fortunate animals that struggle to survive in today’s disposable culture. The sanctuary is fun and interactive in many ways, designed to encourage our community to be proactive and take responsibility for the welfare of animals and the protection of our unique environment. HUHA actively works everyday to find homes and foster care for a multitude of homeless, abandoned, seized and abused animals. We’re here to help you help animals.

Experienced horse volunteers—we need you!

 

 

 

 

The horse department is in need of extra volunteers to lend a helping hand. We can promise you lots of rubs and cuddles, but you must be wiling to pick up horse poo in return!

 

If you are over 16 years of age, super reliable and able to commit to a weekly shift, have previous horse experience (on the ground), and have the ability to travel to Otaki (there is no public transport to our location) then please get in touch enquire.huha@gmail.com.

 

(Please note, this is purely ground work – our horses cannot be ridden and this is not suitable for anyone under 16.)
