♥️A little kindness goes such a long way♥️
If you Google Viral Kindness, you will find a few options of this form ready for you to use, but just in case others can't download here is a decent sized one for you to use.
Also, here is one from our very own Neighbourhood Support.
For those who can download and print them, would you be so kind and print quite a few and pass them around to others.
This would be a great wee project for the young ones to help with. Maybe they can cut them to size or deliver them in the letterboxes, community boards etc ...
All for one and one for all 👍
P.S. I cannot believe that I have to add this bit, but to those who are self isolating, please be careful who you give cash to as I am fairly sure that all the sharks & snakes will be coming out to play🦈🐍
I would like to think that our Neighbourly bunch are a good lot, but there will be always be one rotten apple in the barrel.
To those who will be the angels of mercy in these times, I take my hat off to you and maybe I will see you around as well 👍♥️
Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share below.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
