URGENT CALL TO ANIMAL LOVING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS or ADULTS
(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. :))

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)
.
