The Analogy of Money

Andrea from Eden Terrace

Money had no meaning to the banker
Who was no more than a poor man’s debt
Money makes the world go around
He believed what his teacher had said

Money had meaning to the baker
Who sold baking to make some bread
Money makes the world go around

Money had no meaning to the banker
Who was no more than a poor man’s debt
Money makes the world go around
He believed what his teacher had said

Money had meaning to the baker
Who sold baking to make some bread
Money makes the world go around
And hungry mouths paid to be fed

Money had little meaning to younglings
Who happily exchanged coins for sweets
Money makes the world go around
And rewards spending with a treat

Money had intricate meaning to the developer
Who profited buying land from the crown
Money makes the world go around
For what is exchanged cannot be found

Money had meaning when people had dreams
Now our future is built on currency
Money makes the world go around
It is our lucid dream for our independency

Dear Neighbours, thanks for your continued support and messages.

Sadly my sweet boy did not survive the horrific attack.
Last Thursday evening I had to hold my handsome lad and let him slip off to his final sleep. He fought hard to stay but in the end it was too much for him.
It was the most heartbreaking moment to let him go, and to have to do it alone, without all the family who loved him dearly. This virus and it's impact over several months, ending with the lockdown has been most cruel. I've now lost my dear boy along with my livelihood, and quite probably soon my home as well at the rate we are going. Since then I have simply been trying to cope with the grief of losing him, and helping his best buddy Pepe realise that his mate is not coming home... it's so terribly sad to see him trying to find his best friend.

The vet admitted that they had never seen such a vicious attack on a cat and are now they are considering that it may have been a small dog to have inflicted such dreadful injuries.
I guess I may never know, but sadly his life is gone due to a bad pet owner who doesn't care for their family member the way I care for mine. Animals learn this sort of cruel behaviour from the people who look after them... and the vet advises that there is zero chance the owner of this animal wouldn't know.

Thanks for your help all those who reached out.
Keep safe so we can all get back to a normal life.

Best, Susan



He crept back into the house and I thankfully found him.
He is now at the Vet's having emergency treatment. The cat that attacked him literally went for the jugular and punctured it, and at the same time ripped a huge chunk of his neck away too.
My poor boy is fighting for his life right now and our family are distraught that our old man is having to go through this. The vet says it's still to early to say if he will be okay, but he is at least in the right place and not in any pain.

I will be waiting for this other cat to show itself so I can take a picture and find out who owns it. This is not the only time it had gone after my cats so I'd like to find the owner and try to do something about it.

Thanks, Susan

I need your help to find my poor hurt furboy, Percy.

Last night a cat that regularly hangs around my home near the top of Westmere Cres attacked him at approximately 7.30pm. Percy is obviously hurt as there is a lot of blood on the concrete edging of the house. Now he will have gone into hiding somewhere in the bushes, under a house or car, hidden in a shed, around the side of a building, etc to recuperate but may be seriously hurt and in need of urgent vet attention.

Please Please have a look around your property if you are anywhere close to my home, or keep your eyes open if you're out walking.
I've been out and walked and called him, searched all the property and under my home but I can find no sign of him.

Hurt cats are masters at hiding until they're really sick so I'd like to find him before he gets to that stage. Last year he was attacked and it nearly cost him his life, and me $3k to save him.
He's a precious old boy so I don't want to lose him, and his best mate Pepe is mooching around looking for him.

If you are the owner, or if anyone knows who might own the huge fluffy Manx looking cat that keeps coming into my home and going for the boys please can you treat your cat better so it doesn't keep coming in my home, eating the cats food and attacking the boys.
I lock mine up at night but this cat is forever sleeping on the mat right in front of the cat flap and trying to access the house.

Percy is microchipped so if he is taken to a vet they will be able to contact me, but please if you see or hear anything then please message or call me.

Thanks everyone,

Susan 021 149 7373
