BERHAMPORE COLONY CATS

Kirihika from Island Bay

If you don't already know, we ( Pōneke Ngeru Rescue ) has been trapping these cats for almost a year, since July 2021

For far, we have taken 22 cats and kittens out of the colony; most have been rehomed, and some are still with us.

We estimate these guys to grow rapidly next summer, and we want to get the colony under control. We need your help!

We need to start documenting how far the colony is spreading; we already know that they've moved over to luxford.

Obviously, at the moment, kittens are our priority. There's easier to tame and rehome, meaning we open up a space faster for another cat.

If you can help us provide food, traps, microchip scanners, and vet bills, I believe we can get this colony on lock by 2023!

These four kittens were born in our care by one of the mums we trapped.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
