SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Jessica

Reporter Community News

Something a bit different this week a Red Eared Slider, turtle. She was found in Wainuiomata.

"I am now looking for a pond. If I had company in the pond like another turtle, that's even better. I am quite grumpy for a turtle, so will need an experienced person to adopt me. If you have an amazing setup and are looking for a new family member, please get in touch with my caregivers."
Check out her listing at the Wellington SPCA.

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?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
