After 3 weeks, Darcy has been found!!
EDIT:
Darcy has been found tonight and was handed into Straven Road vets!!
He is skin and bones, but apparently ok, just settling down now.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to the kind person who took him to the vet!
And also thank you to everyone who has kept an eye out for him and had kind words for me when I was searching.
You are wonderful people!
I will take the posters around the neighbourhood down in the next few days.
Wishing everyone a night as good as mine!
Tanja
Kia ora!
My buddy Darcy forgot to come home four nights ago. We recently moved to Pūriri Street. He is a black and white tom and about 17 years old now. He can get frightened and disoriented and needs medication for his heart. If you see him around, please get in touch.
He has no collar but is microchipped.
My number is 021 024 44478.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
