Room for rent in Raumati Beach
Medium sized room (2.7 x 2.7m) in a two-bedroom house on a large section in Raumati Beach. Sharing with one female, mid-30s (owner). The room can be unfurnished or furnished (single bed, chest of drawers).
On-street parking in a fairly quiet street.
$250/wk plus utilities (electricity, internet, and water). Bond = 4 weeks rent, plus 2 weeks rent up front. Looking for a six- to 12-month lease to start with but can then be longer-term if it's working for us both.
You'll be sharing with me (Stacey). I'm busy, work full-time (mostly in Wellington, with a day or two per week WFH). I'm boring in all the good ways.
I'm your ideal housemate if you value quiet, clean and tidy, zero drugs and no smoking (you must not be a smoker or drug taker). No pets either sorry, the place is already ruled by a beautiful black and white cat called Fu. You'll love him ^.^
If you're interested send me a message introducing yourself and explaining why you'd like to rent my room. Cheers, Stacey
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
