00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 2: and thank you for having me.

12
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: No, you're well. Thanks for being with us at fourteen

13
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,279
Speaker 1: minutes past seven. What do you do over there at

14
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 1: the Grace Animal Sanctuary.

15
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 2: We rescue, rehab and rehome anything that crosses our path.

16
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 2: And of course, our biggest motto is sterilize everything.

17
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: Okay, good and where give us? Give us the rundown

18
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: on animals that you have over there?

19
00:00:54,360 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 2: We have dogs, ket chicken, sheep, apig, ponies, cows, we

20
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: have something of everything.

21
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: Where did the animals come from?

22
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 2: A lot of the times we get called out, I

23
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 2: mean even the cabs arrived in our vehicle as tiny

24
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: as they were, umbilical cords attached. But dogs. I mean,

25
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: that's why I couldn't pick up a call earlier, because

26
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 2: I was actually after a dog here on the road

27
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 2: on the way from durbin Ball to Wellington. Sure. So

28
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 2: it's literally we get calls from all over, We get

29
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 2: animals dropped at our gate. We go after the abandoned

30
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 2: and neglected, the abused, and they injured, and we bring

31
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,479
Speaker 2: them back to wholeness and wellness if we can.

32
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: Ah, that's lovely. Tell us about the Easter egg hunt

33
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: that you're putting on today, Karen.

34
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 2: It's going to be fabulous. We have a huge track

35
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 2: laid out for the kids and obviously a shorter one

36
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 2: for the little east. It started last year where I

37
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: thought we expected twenty kids, We ended up with above

38
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 2: fifty kids. The kids obviously went home absolutely exhausted, and

39
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 2: usure for our animals up for adoption as well.

40
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: Okay, fantastic, that's good to know. How does an event

41
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: like this support the sanctuary? What do you the money

42
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: that's raised, where does it go? Where's your biggest need?

43
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:20,959
Speaker 2: Feed, wages, rent, anywhere that we can full hold? All right?

44
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: Where exactly are you how much does it cost to

45
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: come through?

46
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: We are on the Milli Shrod, just off the Milli Shrod,

47
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: just outside of Doomable. For some other reason, the GPS's

48
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 2: Pole Farms, it's not it's Cape Farms. So we're not

49
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: that far out of the city. And we are going

50
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 2: to charge the yourn per child to what take in

51
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 2: the Easter egg Haunt and a bottle of coke or

52
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 2: fenter or water and a popcorn and then we obviously

53
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 2: have merch for sale as well.

54
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: Lovely stuff. Karen, thanks very much indeed for joining us.

55
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: Happy Easter to you, and if you are looking for

56
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: an Eastern egg hunt, why not get down to Grace

57
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: Animal Sanctuary get your chocolate, but also support some animals

58
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 1: in need as well. All right, Next up, if you're

59
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: looking for something maybe a little bit closer to the

60
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: city center, you can meet the Easter Bunny at the

61
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: VNA Waterfront between twelve and four pm. Always a winner

62
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: for the kids, not always, not not always. My eldest

63
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: is still slightly traumatized by a rather over zealous bunny

64
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: at a mall that she'll remain nameless from last year

65
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: or the year before, So you know, just according to

66
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: the sensitivity of your child. Anyway, if they are up

67
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: for it, because heads in her hands already.

68
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 3: If they are up for it, you'll be able to.

69
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: Take pictures with the bunny. They are a little bit

70
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: if they can be a little bit much, can't they

71
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: like when they're huge. They fall into the same category

72
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: as claud do you know what I mean for the

73
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: potential for some fear, you know, like the Halloween nightmare.

74
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: Anyway, if you are.

75
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: Lucky, you'll even get yourself an Easter egg. You've got

76
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: to hurry though, because stocks are limited, so go and

77
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 1: check out the World about the Waterfront website, which is

78
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:23,200

79
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: things happening down there this long weekend, so go and

80
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: check it out. And then, finally, if you're still not

81
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: sure what to do for Easter lunch me Actually, I

82
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: can't be cooking at this late stage, VICKI I can't

Speaker 1: be doing that. I was gonna throw a chicken into

84
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,720
