Cat Rescue Chch -6 Month old Kitty Kat waiting for its furever home.

Bronwyn Reader from Cat Rescue Christchurch

Remember Miss Betty Boop, my previous post.  She was a brindle 8 week old kitten that I had been fostering.  She has found her forever home.

Remember Miss Betty Boop, my previous post.  She was a brindle 8 week old kitten that I had been fostering.  She has found her forever home. 

We are now looking for a forever home for Purdie (who came from the same colony) and due to the similar colouring, could be a half sister to Miss Betty Boop. 

Purdie is named as such due to the fact that she loves to cuddle and shows her appreciation via loud purrs.  Her foster mum loves her and wants her to go to a loving family.

Go look at the facebook link and lets see if we can find a furever home for Purdie and restore her faith in us humans.

Just because she is getting alittle older does not mean she will not make a loving companion!!!  Go the teenies.

Don’t know what your consumer rights are? Consumer Man and Purchase Woman to the rescue!

Meet the consumer heroes, Consumer Man and Purchase Woman. They want to give you tips that you can use to power up your consumer knowledge, and become a confident consumer. They are part of a new campaign from the government’s Consumer Protection team.

You’ll see Consumer Man and Purchase Woman featuring in print and digital ads and on social media with general messages about consumer awareness, as well as advice about specific topics like buying a motor vehicle, understanding the Consumer Guarantees Act and identifying frauds and scams.

You can watch their Faulty Product video.

If you know your rights when buying goods and services, you can be more confident about dealing with any problems that might occur after the sale.

By knowing your consumer rights you can manage tricky situations like :

returning a faulty product
buying online
changing your mind after a door to door sale
If you aren’t sure of your rights (or obligations) when goods or services you’ve paid for aren’t quite right, you can always contact your nearest Citizens Advice Bureau for information and advice.

With the wild weather hitting many parts of New Zealand today, it’s important to be prepared for widespread flooding, heavy rain, slips, and wind damage. You can be prepared by ensuring your emergency kits are fully-stocked and you’ve got plenty of water.

* Find out which items to put in your emergency kit
* Keep an eye on MetService weather updates for more information. Remember to check in on your neighbours to make sure they’re OK. Stay safe on the roads, and consider altering your Easter travel plans.

With hundreds of Bay of Plenty residents already hit hard with severe flooding, we’ve launched an appeal to help. Many families will never be able to return to their homes. 100% of donations will go to those in need, please donate now.

Stay safe!
