Need a forever home for Trevor

Jane from Hamilton East

Hey everybody,

Bit of a situation and needing help fairly urgently...
For the past 2 months, Scotty, our volunteer, has been nursing Trevor (a community cat) back to health from a tragic event. For some time now, Trevor has been the resident and integral community cat at the Waimarie: Hamilton East Community House.

Unfortunately, his place has become unsafe for Trevor. As much as it pains us, he is needing a new forever home; and as stated - fairly urgently. Trevor is an amazing animal. He is very charismatic and has lots of love to give.

The owner we're looking for will be a responsible cat loving person. Someone who won't mind initially monitoring him inside for the first 1 - 2 weeks, giving him monitored outside time throughout, while he gets used to your place, getting ready to enjoy being outdoors unattended; confident that he (most likely) won't run away.

Ideally, someone who has a well fenced in, decent amount of space and not a unit living type situation. He is predominantly an outside cat. Also, you may already have harmless pet-friendly cats or dogs yourself, otherwise, Trevor will happily become the sole attention of your life.

If you are that person or know someone who fits that description, feel free to forward this post to them or tag them in the comments section below, and please contact us at Waimarie. Your help will be hugely appreciated! Thanking you in advance 😊

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
