An update on Ada

Frances from Silverstream

Hi, you may remember me because I’ve been at the Haven (Upper Hutt Animal Rescue Society) for quite a while. I used to be one of the Colony Cats as I was rather shy, but for a while now I’ve been living in my own apartment in the Cattery. I’m learning some new social skills, so that one day … View moreHi, you may remember me because I’ve been at the Haven (Upper Hutt Animal Rescue Society) for quite a while. I used to be one of the Colony Cats as I was rather shy, but for a while now I’ve been living in my own apartment in the Cattery. I’m learning some new social skills, so that one day I may be able to go out to live in a real home with gentle people who understand my special character.
A few weeks ago I had a sore mouth but after my dental treatment I’m feeling heaps better. (If you wish you can still help the humans pay for that at givealittle.co.nz...) I’m even getting quite cheeky about asking to be let out of my apartment....and even more cheeky about avoiding going back in!
Luckily most people here have a bit of a soft spot for me, so no one minds.
It would be great to meet you if you would like to drop in sometime to say “hello” at 4 King Charles Drive, Kingsley Heights, Upper Hutt.

Post 1 of 6: Possible Pest Problems When Insulating Your Home
Chances are, it's the first time in years (if at all!) you've visited your roof, underfloor or wall cavities when you decide to insulate. This means annoying pests have had plenty of time to set up shop and enjoy the warmth and potential food source without being disturbed. You could have thought it wouldn't be possible for there to be any pests in residence because you haven't heard anything, or seen any signs - but some pests, like borer, can be silent. And others, like rats and mice, might come out to enjoy your home when you're out or asleep.

Contact us on 0800-99-PEST, email us at info@pestcontrolservices.co.nz, visit our website www.pestcontrolservices.co.nz... or use the Book Now button on our Facebook page to book your pest control service.

Hi neighbours,

Have you heard this trick before? A handy hack on how to open OXO cubes is causing a stir online, as it seems many of us have been doing it all wrong.

Forget crumbling up the cube after opening the silver foil packaging - it seems that packaging was actually designed to be flattened. To read more click here.

Simply open up the flaps on the side, flatten them out and then crumble the cube inside the package, turning it into a powder that's a heck of a lot easier to add to your dish.

Did you know this handy trick? Have you been opening the cubes the wrong way your whole life like the rest of us? Will this make cooking for your family a little easier? Share your thoughts in the replies below!
