Lost ginger female cat

Mirka has been missing for almost 2 months. We've had a really good sighting on Saturday at Coleridge and Wordsworth. There are quite a few cats with similar colouring about, but how many also have green eyes and one black spot, and one only, right in the middle of their nose? That cat was smart enough to say hi and accept a feed, so hopefully she's hanging around. If you're not in Enderley, please keep finger toes talons & paws crossed for us, and if you are in Enderley please look for her, thank you! Call/text anytime, 0226917908
She is a fair way from home - Bledisloe terrace, Ham East. She was wearing a pink collar & bell but she often loses them. Chipped, snipped, registered. No white patches, just some off-white tail stripes, high pitched miaow, shy but likes dogs. Her own dog and her people miss her a lot. Please help her get home!

A never-ending pile of rubbish outside a block of Kāinga Ora flats in Hamilton East is irking locals who otherwise adore their neighbourhood.

The problem, it seems, is the collection of council bins that are never taken in and attract opportunist dumpers who couldn’t care less about the aesthetics of Firth St and those who call it home.

A battle is brewing between small town Waikato residents and big coffee as Starbucks eyes Tīrau for one of the country’s first drive-through venues outside Auckland.

Combined they make for a rare 2100 plus square metre site.

It may be a bargain, but only to a seasoned developer - who has the ability and cash to put houses on the hilly section.
