SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet (Benjamn Button) aka Peepo

Reporter Community News

Now that we are in lockdown the SPCA is not rehousing cats and dogs.
Over the next few weeks we will run some stories on SPCA pets that have been rehomed. Our first pet is Peepo.
If you have a pet you would like to post on this page, pesase feel free to do so and include a picture.
Peepo - "A couple weeks ago we adopted Benjamin Button, now called Peepo. He has been a delight and a half, to say the least, and has grown so big in such a small amount of time! Slowly, he has adjusted to his new home and is now a superb older brother to his little sister, Namnam. The staff at the SPCA were super helpful throughout the entire adoption process, even giving us tips on how to introduce our new kittens. Suffice to say they are now best buddies."

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
