Available for adoption

Looking For Love!

While some animals come to the Sanctuary for the rest of their lives, others would be happy to find new homes with loving families all to themselves.
If you are interested in any of the animals below, please contact us for more information about them and the adoption process.

The Sanctuary is an animal refuge run by Shawn Bishop and Michael Dixon in Matakana, New Zealand. We provide a safe haven for abused and neglected animals, and care for injured or orphaned native birds. A charitable trust has been established for this purpose.
