As mentioned in the givealittle we have had a $17,000 vet bill for January and am asking if anyone can donate a little monies to the cause. Every $5 + you donate to givealittle (they will provide a receipt) where you can claim back 30% in your year end tax calculation. Small donations by a lot of people all add up to a lot. This is the silly kitten session and hence costs are always high at this time.
We are busy collecting free fruit and jars and making jams/chutney's and fresh tomato and plum sauce to sell at our stalls and making crafts (custions and cat beds etc) with donated goods. So we are trying to fundraise anyway we can with lots of volunteer support.
We will have a stall at the Sumner Market this Sunday the 12th and the Halswell Market on the 26th so would love to see you.
I have attached two recent articles about what we do and how we help stray cats and the resulting kittens that come from unsprayed animals.
Any questions please go to our website or pm me and ask.

The visit of Santiago-based Edith Fischer, protege of Claudio Arrau – renowned as one of the supreme keyboard masters of the century – and her husband Jorge Pepi-Alos, is being hailed as a "very important event", especially for the musical and cultural life of the city.
Fischer has played under the direction of some of the greatest conductors of these times, notably with Erich Kleiber, Paul Ketzski, Sir John Barbirolli among other distinguished directors.
She has also performed at festivals such as Salzburg, Gstaad, Montreal, Stresa, Paris and Flanders.
Pepi-Alos, composer and professor at the University of Chile, studied piano with Fischer and attended the Menuhin Academy in Gdstaad (chamber music). He went on to co-found the Bionay chamber music festival with Fischer. Pepi-Alos went on to win a series of illustrious international prizes.
The couple were invited to Christchurch by dazzling young pianist and composer Tony Chen Lin, who has been regularly invited to perform as young guest artist at the 'Semaine Internationale de Piano et de musique de chambre' in Bionay, Switzerland by festival founder and mentor Edith Fischer.
"This will be a rare opportunity to witness two world-class musicians in performance and working with young New Zealand talent," Lin said.
The couple will give piano master classes in the chamber at The Piano: Centre for Music and Arts on Sunday February 26. 1pm- 6pm. Admission is free.
On Monday, February 27, Fischer and Pepi-Alos will perform in The Piano's concert hall at 7.30pm, the works of Schumann, Brahms, Ravel, VillaLobos, Jenny McLeod, and Pepi-Alos. Adults $30, students $10.

From 2017, HPV immunisation will be free for everyone aged 9 to 26. That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.

That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.
HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop, the viruses are mostly transmitted by teenagers and young adults but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they are young. Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV at some point in their life. Protecting children before they are exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.
For more information about HPV immunisation, see www.health.govt.nz/hpv
a pram has been left outside my house, folded like it was ready to put in a car, but then forgot about it and drove off. Lovely new pram with lots of accessories, clean nappies, wipes, change mat. Anyone know anyone who takes their baby for a walk in Kainga?
