Franklyn village 17yrs old cat
Franklyn is our Franklyn village cat and he is about 17 and still going strong except a free dental check at Victory Vet says $1500 quote for 10-15 extractions. I have been looking after him for about 4 months now and no-one here has $1500 to help our village cat. Do you have any spare money that you could donate to help our cat? Please call the Franklyn village office on 035466039 or Louise on 0276025945 or email info@franklynvillage.co.nz, any funding can go straight into the Franklyn village account rather than anyone's personal account. Please help us to help him, whilst he is still hungry and still eats soft food and biscuits, he doesn't chew his food very much, just swallows it and I am concerned he could be in pain. I have tried to get a loan but couldn't get one.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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.
