Oamaru Vet Partnership
Making a difference in North Otago
Volunteer with usSPCA does not maintain an adoption centre in Oamaru, but our presence in the community remains strong through the dedicated work of our local partners and team members.
Vetlife Oamaru provides essential care for animals who come into SPCA’s care, while our full-time Animal Welfare Inspector responds to welfare concerns and call-outs across North Otago and South Canterbury.
Together with local foster families and nearby SPCA Centres, we ensure every animal receives the compassion, treatment, and support they need to recover and find a safe, loving home.
