Hello neighbours
I live on Hewer Crescent,
My neighbour had a door knock, asking if she had lost a kitten because this lovely lady had found one and was trying to find the owner, and has left the kitten with her, my neighbour called me as she has more than enough cats in her care, and asked if I could help, so I now have said kitten who was named Miss Potts
(all though he’s a boy so we’ll call him Mr Potts)
the kitten is black and white, male, approx 6 weeks old, kitten is riddled with fleas, has the squirts and has worms, I’ve given it a worm tablet, I’m not sure yet if I’ll give it flea treatment (as I’ll need to break open a dose and only use a small
Portion of it, but I’m urgently looking for the owners, please call me 021-060-2701 we can’t keep kitty here for long, as my cats stress and last stress he had ended up with him in cat hospital and now has regularly occurring urinary infections which cost $200 each vet visit! (Sorry for that history lesson)
I will have to take the kitty to a cat rescue, tomorrow afternoon if I haven’t heard from the owners.
Please share post, thanks

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.
