What's it like living with a loud voice

Sanda Reporter from Stuff

Hi there,

I'm writing a story on what's it like to live with a loud voice. Are you someone who gets high-pitched whenever you are excited? Does your family constantly nag you to dial down your voice? Or are you someone who's annoyed by your loved ones' loud talking?

I'm writing a story on what's it like to live with a loud voice. Are you someone who gets high-pitched whenever you are excited? Does your family constantly nag you to dial down your voice? Or are you someone who's annoyed by your loved ones' loud talking?

If you can relate to any such scenario, I would love to hear from you. Please leave a comment or you can email me at sanda.arambepola@stuff.co.nz

Recommendation on getting rid of cat spray smell

Swasti from Remuera

Hi neighbours

We trialed a cat few months back and unfortunately it soiled our new couch and padded chairs.

While I've managed to get rid of the moisture, the smell is still lingering. Can someone please recommend any products that they found helpful in getting rid of the smell.

Thanks
