Petbus is Karyn McLauchlan’s solution to New Zealand’s impersonal and stressful pet transport options. McLauchlan used to be a dog breeder, and had a terrible experience transporting puppies by airline in 2004, with two puppies dying on the journey to Wellington.
Her solution was to deliver pets herself using a bus. The most unusual thing she has delivered is an ant farm but she has also moved peacocks, spiders and geese.

Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga is calling for the public submissions on the library’s heritage status, while Wellington City Council simultaneously considers the future of the building after it closed in March 2019 due to seismic concerns. Opened in 1991, the library, designed by Athfield Architects, was the centrepiece of Te Ngākau Civic Square.
Heritage New Zealand’s central region director Jamie Jacobs said heritage listing does not mean the building would be protected, and that decision would remain with the city council.
