Who is the baby (kitties) mama?
Hello, I'm looking for the owner of a tortoiseshell cat with a pink collar in Ranui. This cat has been spotted in our garage and we found out why today. We have found 2 lovely kittens in there and the mysterious tortoiseshell is their mother. We can't look after the kittens so it's important we try and find the mother's owner as the kittens belong to them and the SPCA won't help until we have made sure there is no owner. When they do get involved they will want to take the mother too if we can't find her owner so even if the owner doesn't want the kittens we need to find them so as not to accidentally have their pet collected.

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)

The Hikoi on Tuesday 19th
I copied this from a Facebook page: The expected route of the hīkoi on Tuesday is from Takapuwahia Maree in Esldon towards Porirua and along Kenepuru Drive to Tawa, then up Middleton Road to Johnsonville, down Ngaraunga George and along the old Hutt Road to Wellington. They are anticipating significant congestion on the roads between 06.00am and 12.30pm.
