Our waterways and the life they support are important to lots of people, and I want to understand what you think should be done to make sure future generations are able to enjoy and protect our freshwater.
We need your help in protecting the health and mauri of our waterways, which are under pressure from increasing population. We need solutions that require real change in the way we interact with water if we want it to be safe for our kids. And we need to think long-term about how and who pays for these solutions.
Want to join me on this journey? Connect with us to talk about what we can do together. You can reach me at whaitua@gw.govt.nz or connect with me through Linkedin www.linkedin.com....

I’m looking for a forever home for my pretty boy Freddy.
I adopted him last year in April when Lette and Commy(my cats disappeared on me).
He is an outdoor cat with lots of spirit, love and affection, he’s a real home boy,doesn’t stray, basking himself in the sunny days of summer in my garden, on top of rabbit cages, or hanging out with the chooks.
Unfortunately, hes taken a liking to all my little pet baby bunnies earlier this year with various litters.
Freddy is an amazing hunter, he’s very clean and tidy and cleans up after himself, doesn’t leave anything behind, ie licks the plate clean, or no remains of whatever he has chosen to eat. He is well fed by me too, with a gourmet of cat biscuits morning and night, pet milk every now and then, veal and heart pet meat.
I would love hm to go to a new home, perhaps on a wonderful farm where he can keep the rabbit population under control.
Please let me know if you are interested in Freddy.
Kind regards
Paula

The vets note that there are two Ragdoll-Tabby Cross males, two Ragdoll-Calico females and one Ragdoll Tortoiseshell female. $350 each. Available now. 10 weeks old, playful, fixed, vaccinated and toilet-trained. Raised by an 11 and 13 year old... Te Ore Ore area, Masterton.
(For those interested, with an actual Ragdoll Purebred male on hand now though, moving on, all future kittens will be Purebred Blue Point Ragdolls).
Contact Jo: 027 686 0140 to book a visit if keen to take one on. By the way - we learnt that a Tortoiseshell is like a Tabby - but with ginger markings; and what we thought were Tortoiseshells (white, ginger and tabby'ish markings) are in fact 'Calicos'.

Sprinklers can be used at houses with odd numbers on odd-numbered days, and at even-numbered houses on even days. Handheld hoses can continue to be used on any day.
Water restrictions are tied to the level of the river, the source of Masterton’s drinking water, with sprinklers allowed if the flow is above 1,300 l/s.
Masterton District Council Assets and Operations Manager David Hopman said forecast rain indicated the current restriction could stay in place until at least early next week, but he reminded gardeners to monitor restriction levels.
“River levels have increased considerably since the total ban was lifted last week,” he said.
“The situation can change quickly, but we are hopeful of keeping the current restriction in place until after the weekend.
“We appreciate the efforts of householders to conserve water, and we want to respond to the higher flow levels by easing the restriction to sprinklers on alternate days while we can.”
For updates on Masterton’s water restriction levels, refer to the council website: www.mstn.govt.nz...
