Paw Justice > What is Paw Justice?

About Us and the campaign

Paw Justice is a charitable organisation that was formed in 2009 to help deal with the sickening problem of animal abuse and neglect against pets in New Zealand. Such abuse has grown at alarming rates, both in frequency and severity. 

Animals are suffering and dying at the hands of callous humans who think they can get away with it. We say this must stop now, and we’re ready to fight animal abuse with everything we can muster. 
We are pulling together every resource every can find, welcoming every supporter who believes in our cause, and working together with other like minded New Zealanders to stop this insidious violence against innocent animals. We want YOUR pet to be safe!

We want to see abuse rates dropping dramatically, serious offenders imprisoned, children educated about respect and kindness, and companion animals all over New Zealand living comfortable and happy lives. We’ve already helped make big changes by successfully pushing for harsher punishments for animals abusers. We know that with your help, we can achieve our goals and make a difference!

YOUR pet brings so much unconditional love and happiness to you and to others in your life.  They deserve protection, and together we will give it to them. When you become part of Paw Justice you are making a conscious decision to become a care giver and guardian, not only for your own pet, but for other pets who are not as fortunate to have you as their owner. 

Overview

Paw Justice is standing up for the 1.6 million cats and dogs that live as part of a family in New Zealand. We are uniting good pet owners and animal lovers together and sending a loud message that harming animals is wrong, only together as a nation joined as one voice can we put a stop to this shocking rise of animal abuse. If you believe in what we are doing, you have already become a spokesperson for your pet.

Represent your pet with pride, be part of Paw Justice!
