Poll: Should all homes have curtains?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Even well-insulated homes can lose up to 45% of the room's heat without having adequate curtains. This is why Curtain Banks are in high demand at this time of year.

This is why Curtain Banks are in high demand at this time of year.

A petition is circulating to get curtains added as part of the Healthy Homes Standards in the hopes of helping renters avoid living in cold, damp conditions. Do you think curtains should be mandatory for New Zealand homes?

Has anyone lost a ginger cat?

Justine from Saint Johns

We’ve had a cat coming in to the house for several weeks and for the first time got a glimpse of it. He/she actually came in through the cat door and into the kitchen while we were home ( normally it’s when we are out or at night into the laundry) to eat our cats food.

He/she actually came in through the cat door and into the kitchen while we were home ( normally it’s when we are out or at night into the laundry) to eat our cats food. The poor thing ran out when we called our cat but he didn’t run off completely which makes us think he/she either has a family somewhere or has maybe been lost or left behind. I put some food on the lawn to see if we could identify any injuries etc and try to take a pic. We got a couple of pretty bad ones - attached. Just hoping someone out there might recognise him/her. One of the pics is clear enough to zoom in on. 👍🏻 we are at the back of the golf course on Panapa Drive.
