Pet Category Postings

As of 23 January, 2017, the sale of domestic pets on Postanote.co.nz is prohibited. Small re-homing or adoption fees are encouraged, but listings from breeders or those suspected of profiting from the sale of pets are not allowed.

There are many reputable breeders who operate in a responsible and humane way. However, Postanote.co.nz is unable to distinguish between responsible breeders and those profiting from the sale of pets with little regard for animal welfare, including overpopulation.

Please adhere to these rules when posting a pet listing:

All listings posted or edited in our Pet category will be viewed by a live moderator within 48 hours. Please do not repost your listing during this time. This allows us the opportunity to ensure only listings that meet our Pet Posting Policy are allowed. If you see a pet posting you suspect is from someone profiting from the sale of a pet, please use the “Report Ad” button.

We will, at our discretion, with or without notice, remove any listings that we believe indicate signs of animal cruelty or if we suspect sellers of profiting from the sale of pets.

Upon request, Postanote.co.nz may release your personal contact information, photographs, and any other animal related information to authorities, as permitted by law.
