Hi everyone. My family and I are very new to the area and my daughter has just started at Queenspark School on a Monday. This is not actually a school related post, but as I'm not connected to any community groups yet, I thought I would try post on here ...
My short haired black cat Merlin escaped last night. We have only lived here a few days and never on this side of town so I am very worried he is lost somewhere and could be hiding in your garage or gardens.
He is a medium sized, very healthy looking boy with huge green eyes. He is completely black except for a tiny patch of white under his chin which can be hard to see if he's not lifting his head. He is super friendly and quite vocal with a very loud purr, but may be stand offish at first as he is cautious but not scared.
Unfortunately his new collar is sitting on the bench as we didn't put it on him yet, so he is not wearing one.
Please please please if you see a black cat, any black cat around Royal Park Drive / Chadlington street and surrounding areas, give me a call on 0220841341 and I will come and see if it's him.
I know a lot of people say this, but he's more than just a pet, he's my baby and best friend of 9 years and i'm terribly worried about him.
Thanks for your help, and please feel free to share this post if you know of any more suitable pages to post on.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

Who would have thought walking could have been so dangerous!
Wow!

In these crashes, 34 people walking died, 240 people walking were seriously injured, and 595 people walking suffered minor injuries.
Most injuries occur in the young (5 - 29yrs), then 50+yrs, with the highest number of child pedestrians injured between 2pm and 4pm, followed by 4pm to 6pm and 8am to 10am.
