He looks as if he was well cared for, very friendly, enjoys pats and quite chatty if you talk to him. We already have two cats so he is not too worried by other cats and actually came through the cat door the other night so not at all scared although shoot back through. If you know who he is, may have just moved into the area or someone that may have lost this lovely young cat please get back to me asap. Maree

Hi neighbours,

Did you hear a "sonic boom" and see an object flying across the Canterbury sky? Many residents witnessed a suspected meteor this week.

The burning rock was at least the size of a fist – much larger than what astronomers usually see above New Zealand. Usually the objects are about the size of a grain of sand.

The arrival of a meteor can be impressive, with even something pebble-sized lighting up in the sky, Canterbury Astronomical Society president Euan Mason says.

So what did you think of the meteor? Where were you when you saw it? And do you see them often from your place? Let us know in the replies!
