Mittens is safe! Hold the front page

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

It is the catnapping that was not. All's well that ends well for Wellington celebrity cat Mittens.

It is the catnapping that was not. All's well that ends well for Wellington celebrity cat Mittens.
A caller to Stuff's Wellington newsroom reported that the Turkish
angora was stuck in a car on Victoria St in central Wellington early
on Tuesday morning.
When reporters arrived at the scene, Mittens was inside the car and, evidently, eager to get out.
Help was soon on the way in the form of Mittens' owner Silvio Bruinsma
who plucked Mittens from the car to take back home.
It seems that Mittens had been wandering the streets and a
well-meaning member of the public put him in their car due to concern
for the cat. They had then called Bruinsma,, who (as he has done many
times before) went to Mittens' rescue. -Tom Hunt

Free Aloe plant

Morag from Khandallah

The pot this Aloe grew in got broken and it was lifted into a larger pot with some compost tucked down the side. If you're happy to lift in out of its new pot (which we want to keep) it's yours for free. It has a robust root ball and should replant well.

Changes to landfill drop off - Waste Bylaw

A recent recycling survey showed that 93% of Wellingtonians recycle, and 87% believe it’s worth taking the time to do it properly. With that in mind, we’ve made some changes to help Wellingtonians recycle right when they visit the Southern Landfill.

As part of our new Waste Bylaw, these items are no longer accepted in the landfill. Instead you can drop them off at the recycling and composting services on site:

♻️ Green waste
♻️ Electronic waste
♻️ Recyclable paper and cardboard
♻️ Glass bottles and jars
♻️ Steel and aluminium cans
♻️ Tyres
