Have you seen Rusty?

Sinead from Te Kowhai

Hi folks I know this is a long shot however our cat Rusty has gone by the looks of it for a bit of a wander and our guess is she may have stepped in to explore someone's shed without realising it and has been locked inside for the night?

We had her around us at 2pm yesterday and has not been seen since. We expected her to pop home at some point in the morning however she never came in which is why we expect she has probably been locked inside somewhere.

Her name is Rusty. We're located on Horotiu Road down near the Vege Shop so we don't imagine her wandering very far but we would really like our fur baby home.

If anyone has a spare moment during the day I would love it if you could please just pop your head in your shed or garage to see if she may have wandered in there.

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)
.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
