Lovely little cat desperately needs a home
The wee cat in the photo needs to be rehomed and soon. Her owners were given notice to quit their long term rental and cannot take her to their new rental - for reasons totally beyond their control. They had someone who was going to take her who has let them at the last minute.
Noodle is 6 years old and spayed. Although a little timid at first with strangers she is very friendly once she knows people and is very much a lap cat. She is tolerant of dogs having lived with two. Please share this with anyone who could give this lovely little cat a good home. If we cannot find a person for her this week she may have to be put down. I am not the owner but am helping them out - please phone me on 027 822 788 / 03 314 9625 if you can help and pass this message on to anyone you know who may be able to take 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)
