It could be a neighbour who donates time to a sports team in your neighbourhood or someone who brings your bins up the driveway every week. Maybe they’re just really unique; the neighbour who drives that bright pink car or skateboards with the kids to school each day.

Tell us why your neighbour is awesome and you could win one of four $250 Prezzy® cards (plus one for your Awesome Neighbour).

Our lovely cat needs a new home for christmas

Erin from Titahi Bay

My partner and I are moving to the UK in the new year for work, and unfortunately Mo the cat can't come. He is a gorgeous and lovely boy, 7-8 years old and in very good health.

He takes a little while to settle in a new place and get used to new people, but when he does he really rewards. Very affectionate when he wants to be, able to entertain himself without fuss for a few days if you're not around. He enjoys company and will quickly become attached to the person who is most often around.

Special skills: belly rubs, rotormotor purring, sitting on available laps while you work, keeping sick people company, sleeping in late on weekends, chasing ribbons as though he is far younger than he is.

Special considerations: he is terrified of other cats and so should probably be an only pet. While he is generally a gentle cat, he does occasionally scratch or bite when touched in a way he doesn't like (children will need to be able to be gentle with him). He will need a litter tray when he first moves, while he settles.

Please get in touch. You are most welcome to come and meet him.
