All the kittens have gone to wonderful new homes. Thank you for your interest.

Mr. Brian Ford turned up about a year ago & gave us the privilege of feeding him twice a day. Every AM with a hiss hello, he started his day with a hearty breakfast & ended it with an equally delicious meal. 2 mths ago, he turned up sick after getting in a fight, I trapped him, took him to vet, he got snipped & we tamed him somewhat. We can pat him, & hold him as well as feed him - progress!

I canvassed the neighborhood to see if he belonged to someone (he didn't) but we found out he fathered 4 kittens across the street. One even has a bobtail just like him. My husband calls them the Sons of Brian (even tho two are girls :)...

These beautiful Kittens are clean and healthy. They will be vet checked and have their first vaccine and a microchip. We are asking for a $70 contribution to cover this.

We also want to ensure all the kittens get fixed when they get to 4 months at Great South Vets. The cost will be $29 for males, $49 for females so we require your commitment to this.

If you would like to add a little furball to the family please let me know and I can send you a questionaire. Cat's are a 15-year commitment so we ask that you think carefully before deciding.

Pic 1 - GIRL - Aurora
Has an orange star on her forehead & big blue-green eyes so we named her after the Roman goddess of sunrise. Quiet and reserved.

Pic 2 BOY - Sirius
Sirius is the biggest of the four. He loves his food & has beautiful black &cream colouring with gorgeous greyish eyes

PIC 3 BOY- Brian
Named after his father, Brian is grey & cream. He's a lovely boy that is active, but happy to sit next to you & be patted.

Pic 4 & 5 GIRL - Pixie
Beautiful Pixie has four white paws/legs & a sweet little bobtail~! She has the best personality &happily pings from one place to the next as fast as she can then suddenly passes out just as fast.

They are litter trained and are eating Purina One Kitten food.

You of course can name the kittens as you wish :)

Price: $70

Krystie Soloman is turning heads in the track and field world.

The 17-year-old won national club championships in the under 18s two years in a row and placed third in the under 20s group this year.

Now the Sacred Heart Girls' College student is being flooded with track and field scholarship offers.

She has been approached from public and private universities in the United States with grants as high as $300,000.

Solomoan said she is looking forward to improving her personal best times and "becoming the best athlete and runner I can be.”

She said she was so grateful to be given the chance to compete overseas and push her body to the limit.

"I don't know where that will take me, whether that be the Commonwealth or Olympic stage, but I know that I want to get as close as I can to those world’s fastest athletes and have the potential to be so much faster than I am today. "

Looking for something fun to do in Auckland during the lead-up to Christmas?

You can head down to We Love Aotearoa this weekend at ASB Showgrounds in Epsom.

The free series of events kicks off on Saturday with an added day of virtual reality experiences on Sunday.

Tomorrow you can catch a live set from Stan Walker and pop-up performances from East Cook Islands Community Culture group, Ngā Rangatahi Toa, Guggemusik, drag queens Kita Mean and Anita Wigl'it, and Freshman's Dance Crew.

Aucklanders can take part in a silent disco, photos with Santa, Animal Cycle Roller Rink, interactive art installations and the We Love VR zone.

Drift-racing legends Mad Mike Whiddett and Darren Kelly from The Heart of Racing will chat with fans, sign autographs, take photos, and display their cars.

A group of international travellers stuck in Auckland during the Covid-19 pandemic launched the series.

The group says they were overwhelmed by the blessings and love they received from the people of Aotearoa during their stay.

These events are their way of thanking New Zealanders for their efforts, they say.
