Rosemary Stout is heartbroken.

Her beloved cat River has been missing from Torbay on Auckland's North Shore since November 28.

"It just cut me right up," Stout said after her micro-chipped pet vanished from Cliff Rd.

Stout is offering a $1000 reward for information leading to the safe return of the cat which she bred and raised for six years.

She describes the blue point Siamese as a character which is "more like a dog."

"I'd go to bed, he'd cuddle up to me and put his paw on my chest. He's just really, really special."

Stout has plastered posters and delivered pamphlets around Auckland in search of the cherished pet.

Torbay residents helped her scour the cliff with drones incase the cat had become stuck.

River's disappearance comes as a crushing blow after "a hell of a year," she said.

Stout's daughter, 50, has been battling cancer for the past three years and endured major surgery to remove cancer just before Christmas.

"It's like I live with a time bomb," Stout said. " You wonder each month,' is my daughter going to be here next year?'

"On top of it all, I ended up with breast cancer. I lost my brother as well."

Stout suspects River may have moved out of the area because he is partial to tradies' vans, she said.

"He liked to get in and rip up all the paper (bills) that they have inside.

"I just want him home."

Email roseken@xtra.co.nz if you have any information about River's whereabouts.

This year is the year of recovery from COVID-19, the economic impact and hit on Council revenue was real. Auckland Council is forecast to take a 1 billion dollar revenue hit because of COVID-19.

This 10-year budget aims to find a balance between investing in our city and not overburdening our residents.

It will provide for our city’s future while keeping our rates increases low compared to other growth cities in New Zealand, will help Auckland’s economy recover, support our communities, build water and housing infrastructure and improve our transport network.

We need your feedback on these issues and how we pay for them.

This year's event runs from March 20 - 30th with the theme being 'The Great Plant Swap' as an easy way for neighbourhoods to grow stronger together.

Here's some ideas for ways you could get involved:

• swap seeds with a neighbour
• gift a plant you've grown to a neighbour
• take some flowers to a neighbour
• organise a produce swap
• share garden tips or recipes for food in season
• create community gardens or berm pollinator pathways
• host an inclusive garden-themed working bee
• a friendly neighbourhood BBQ with homegrown ingredients

The options are endless! At the end of the day, our shared aim is to help bring people together by encouraging intentional connection with our neighbours. Whether that be organising a street party, sharing a cuppa, or simply saying ‘Kia Ora!” to those who live around you, every action helps to create a safer and more connected New Zealand.

Great news! Auckland is now in alert level 2.
The rest of the country has shifted to alert level 1.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
Georgia Forrester

There are three community cases, two siblings who are students at Papatoetoe High School, and their household contact.

There was also one new case in MIQ on Wednesday.

Schools in Auckland can reopen. But Papatoetoe High School will remain closed for the rest of the week.

Teachers and students from that school must return a negative test before returning next week.

Covid-19 alert level 3 took effect in Auckland at 11.59pm on Sunday

The Government is making it easier for businesses to get one of its support measures - if current alert levels are extended.

People identified as contacts or who were at the locations of interest are being asked to get tested.
