Cat needing a forever home

Julie from Judea

I have a cat that needs a new forever home as soon as possible. She was my grandparents cat but they have recently moved into a rest home and they couldn't take her with them.

She was my grandparents cat but they have recently moved into a rest home and they couldn't take her with them. Her name is Dora and she's a 14 year old calico. She is nervous around people she doesn't know but with time and love she will be a friendly, sweet, affectionate cat. She hasn't been to the vet for a little while but she is healthy and I can take her for a check up before she goes to her new home. She is best suited to a home with no other pets and no young children. She is used to being in a quiet home. She likes spending time outside and would enjoy curling up in your lap as well. She is currently living in Bethlehem.

A good night's sleep is essential for our overall well-being.


We understand the significance of choosing the perfect mattress size and type to ensure you wake up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated every morning.

In this comprehensive guide, we'll walk you through the factors to consider when selecting your mattress, from the kind of bed that suits your sleep style to the ideal firmness and size for your needs.

The Crucial Role of Choosing the Right Mattress for a Good Night's Rest


The foundation of restful sleep begins with your bedtime routine and, critically, with selecting the right kind of mattress.
The comfort and support provided by your mattress play a pivotal role in determining the quality of sleep you enjoy.


The significance of your sleeping position intertwines with the necessity of choosing an appropriate mattress. It's more than a matter of preference; it directly influences your sleep quality and overall well-being.
Understanding how your mattress complements your sleeping posture is key to achieving a more restful and rejuvenating night's sleep.


Spinal Alignment

The impact of your mattress on spinal alignment cannot be overstated. A mattress that properly supports your body will maintain the natural curvature of your spine, reducing pressure points and alleviating discomfort.


Tip: For back sleepers, a mattress that offers medium-firm support can help maintain the natural curve of the lower back. Side sleepers might look for a mattress that provides a softer surface to contour to the hips and shoulders, keeping the spine aligned.


Respiratory Health

Your mattress can also affect your respiratory health, particularly if it exacerbates or mitigates conditions like snoring or obstructive sleep apnea. The right mattress can support sleeping positions that promote open airways.


Tip: Side sleepers, who may experience fewer breathing difficulties, should choose a mattress that allows for easy movement and doesn’t lock them into one position.


Circulation

A mattress that restricts blood flow can lead to discomfort, numbness, or even pressure ulcers. It's vital to select a mattress that facilitates good circulation, complementing your body's needs.


Tip: A mattress that is too firm might impede circulation for side sleepers, while one that is too soft may cause back sleepers to sink too deeply, affecting blood flow.


Comfort and Support

Ultimately, the goal is to find a mattress that provides both comfort and support tailored to your preferred sleeping position. This ensures not only a restful night's sleep but also contributes to your overall health and well-being.


Tip: Invest time in testing mattresses to find one that matches your body's contours and supports your sleeping style.


Whether you prefer a plush, firm, or medium-firm mattress, the right choice can dramatically improve your sleep quality.


What Size Of Mattress Is Best For Sleep?

Selecting the right mattress size is essential for maximizing comfort and ensuring ample space for restful sleep.


For solo sleepers or children, a single or twin mattress provides ample space for a comfortable night's sleep.

Couples may opt for a larger size, such as a queen or king mattress, to ensure ample room for rest without compromising individual space and comfort.

Consider your bedroom's dimensions and personal preferences when choosing the perfect mattress size.

Dishwasher

Lesley from Otumoetai

Does anyone know if there's someone who picks up old dishwashers? Replaced ours, it was still going but not working well so we don't want to donate it and pass trouble on to someone else! It's a Fisher and Paekyl, might be useful to someone who fixes them or for parts.

This Power Jac is the original Australian invention – there are many lower quality brands now available out of China.
Designed for the Offroad market and Rural industry it will lift vehicles (or any other equipment) up to 4 tonnes (4.000kg) on uneven or soft ground – even off mud.
Simply push it anywhere under the vehicle and inflate. Given its large flexible surface area it will not damage the underside of the vehicle and is stable on any surface. (Stay clear of sharp objects or hot exhaust). Just hold the funnel over the exhaust pipe and let the vehicle idle.
Inflates and deflates quickly. Rolls up into a bag for easy stowage. Full instructions on the bag.
In excellent, as new, condition even though it has been used a number of times in very difficult recovery situations. Washed and stored since.
Note: The 3 pictures showing an orange bag are not this unit. They are to demonstrate various applications only.

Price: $200
