(excellent opportunity for future vet or vet-nurse students)

Hi everyone,

The holidays are almost upon us. For home-based adults or students who will not be working full-time, or going away ... and who love animals ... this may be the perfect time to invest in rehabilitating an abandoned cat which has been uplifted from the street.

There are 8 x TAME 10 month old (teenage) cats in Glendene which desperately need pre-fostering.

If :
- you are in a single-family home (i.e. not flatting) with a screen door, or screens on the windows
- you have a reasonably quiet home environment (i.e. no 'boisterous' younger siblings) or loud parties
- there is often someone home.
- you have time each day to spend working with one or more of these young tame cats (to get them re-used to human handling).

... please call or text Maria (022 0109068).

You will be provided with a large cage (crate) to initially contain the cat. As the cat gets tamer, they will be able to leave the crate and walk around the house. The screens (door or window) will allow fresh air to circulate without risk of their getting lost. When they are ready for adoption, they will be advertised for re-homing.

Of course, if you decide to keep them that would be wonderful.

This is a great opportunity for anyone who has vet or vet-nurse aspirations. ... or anyone who would like to offer hope to an abandoned animal.

Look forward to hearing from you. :))

With warmer weather heading our way, gardening is a great way to stay fit and get regular doses of Vitamin D to help strengthen our bones.

The Home Safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to avoid falls, sprains and strains while pulling those stubborn weeds. For example, when you’re gardening avoid heavy lifting and use long-handled tools so you’re not bending over for long periods. Steady yourself when bending and standing, no pesky weed is worth falling for!

A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.

Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.

Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.
