Lost cat
Our 3 year old cat Honey (Ragdoll) went missing since 12 June from Malvern Road, Morningside. She is an inquisitive, indoor cat and this is the first time she left the safety of her garden. She hates cold temperatures, so she may have found a warm place in your garage, shed or underfloor. Appreciate if you can look for her or keep an eye. Last few nights has been very cold. We are very concerned for her safety. She has a pink collar but it is easily detachable. Her name tag shows " Annie". She is microchipped. If you see her or find her, please ring 021 1850167 or 021 0324845. Thank you.

Aroha (Love and Compassion) - Day 14
Tāwhirimātea and the Rescued Tītī Birds
In a time of great storms, Tāwhirimātea, Atua of winds and weather, saw the little tītī (muttonbirds) struggling against fierce gales that had scattered their flock. Though known for his ferocity, Tāwhirimātea felt aroha for the vulnerable birds. He calmed the winds and guided the tītī to shelter, teaching the Atua of the forest, Tāne, how to protect them with his trees. The birds thrived, and in gratitude, they became a source of sustenance and companionship for the people.
Moral: True power lies in compassion, and by caring for others, we create harmony in our world.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
