I stopped immediately, got out of my vehicle and spent some time trying to look for him/her up and down the street, it was very dark and I feel absolutely horrible that I couldnt find him/her.
I honestly dont know if the poor puss is ok.
Please, if you live on Champion Street or in the surrounding area, check your furbabies to make sure they are ok.
If this was your cat and you are reading this, I am so so so sorry and feel a tremendous amount of guilt as I have 2 cats that live with me and couldnt bear to loose either in such a way.
Astronomers are hoping for clear skies on Saturday morning when the longest eclipse of the 21st century works its magic in the night sky - it is expected just after 8am.

According to Nasa, the moon will be in full eclipse - or totality - for 103 minutes. But the moon will enter totality not long before setting in this country. The next such event will not happen again until 2021.The total lunar eclipse will be the result of the sun, moon and earth lining up perfectly.
HOW TO VIEW IT
- You'll need to be as far south as possible, have clear skies, and be in a location where you can see the Moon setting in the south west and the Sun rising in the north east.
- The higher you can get, the better. That's because the Sun will be barely clearing the horizon as the Moon sets in the opposite direction.
- Unfortunately, MetService is predicting Saturday will bring showers or rain in the west and south of the country, heavy for a time over the South Island.
- In Invercargill, there will be five minutes between sunrise at 8:12 and moonset shortly thereafter, with the Moon entirely within Earth's shadow.
- In Dunedin the interval is reduced to four minutes; in Christchurch, three minutes.

The Best Furniture Shop owner Kim Booth grew up in a family of furniture retailers and decided to turn a traditional sales strategy on its head with the launch of the New Brighton store nine years ago. Instead of a plush showroom taking up high-demand real estate space, The Best Furniture Shop has a huge, simple fit-out in a low-rent part of town.
Savings from low-overheads would go straight to customers, with rock-bottom prices every day. Check it out on our website, or instore at 61 Hawke Street, New Brighton.
I'm looking to buy my first home. Would love to live in Phillipstown or surrounding. I need low maintenance, warm, prefer stand alone. I don't have a huge mortgage.
Thanks.

It comes after news that the number of people in New Zealand able to speak te reo Māori is declining. What do you think? Should it be made compulsory? Do you think this will help retain the language?
Neighbourly's own Sarah Moore has started studying te reo Māori follow her journey here.

Hi neighbours,
Did you know long-life milk cartons can't be recycled in New Zealand? There is no company which recycles them within the country, so the majority of them end up in the landfill. Although Auckland and Christchurch accept the cartons for recycling, they are sent offshore.

Did you know long-life milk cartons can't be recycled in New Zealand? There is no company which recycles them within the country, so the majority of them end up in the landfill. Although Auckland and Christchurch accept the cartons for recycling, they are sent offshore.
What do you think about this? Do you think it's time we get the right facilities to recycle our food waste in NZ? Let us know your thoughts in the replies! To read more about this, click here.
