'It's absolutely devastating': Ruahine Animal Rescue evicted from council site

ah yes the council strikes again. more time spent on red tape than actually helping the community. classic.

Hana Stewart2026-07-20T19:42:49.000Z

well said. actions speak louder than words from this council.

Hayden Kelly2026-07-20T19:40:49.000Z

FFS these poor animals don't deserve this. Council prob wants to put another carpark there instead.

Ella Thompson2026-07-20T20:10:49.000Z

bet there's a development deal behind this. watch this space.

Ella Thompson2026-07-20T19:49:49.000Z

saw this coming a mile away. council's been itching to get rid of them since that noise complaint last year.

Finn Walker2026-07-20T20:11:49.000Z

where are these animals supposed to go now? absolutely gutted for Grace and the team. they do amazing work.

Sky Murphy2026-07-20T20:36:49.000Z

fingers crossed someone with land sees this and offers help.

Finn Walker2026-07-20T21:22:49.000Z

yeah, they're saints. we should be funding them not evicting them. utter joke.

Sky Murphy2026-07-20T20:39:49.000Z

this is so wrong. i volunteered there once and they care so much. hope someone steps up with land.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-20T20:49:49.000Z

tbh there's two sides to every story. maybe they didn't follow the lease terms. but still sucks for the animals.

Hayden Kelly2026-07-20T21:42:49.000Z

nah mate no excuse for kicking a charity out. councils love flexing their power on the little guys.

TVNZ2026-07-20T21:44:49.000Z

lol classic council apologist. these guys are run on donations and good will, not corporate lawyers.
