Lost / found cat
this little cat was found in our sun room (with our not-so-well guinea pig - Nibbles!!)Cowered up under a sofa, she must have been there overnight. Managed to get her into a cat cage -after leaving doors etc open for hours. Rawpaw said she is not microchipped, and would be 14 years + starving, dehyrated and has a bad heart, but after being frightened is still a friendly wee thing. She is now at Wgton SPCA but needs to be with her human parents!! If you now who she is - please contact SPCA but I would also like to know what happens to her *=*

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

They are anticipating significant congestion on the roads between 06.00am and 12.30pm.
