Earlier this year he was picked up by the Wellington SPCA with severe ringworm, which made all his hair fall out, and left his skin itchy and raw.
Gremlin’s condition had been untreated for some time so a treatment plan was put in place to help Gremlin heal and ease his pain.
After weeks in hospital and in the isolation unit, and months in foster care, Gremlin is a completely different kitten!
He has now found his forever family who have renamed him Van.
It is short for the word Vanir – the Norse word for magician - in recognition of the transformation he has made

The photos are from Rosa Marie who took her camera to Zealandia to see one only of the only mainland populations in New Zealand.
Although they are widely distributed throughout the New Zealand region, and are very common on some islands, they are almost entirely absent from the two main islands.
One exception is Wellington, where birds from Zealandia and Matiu/Somes Islands are occasionally seen in suburban gardens.

Mayor Andy Foster recently said the forecast increase looked “horrific”, and was likely to be more than 15 per cent. That would be the largest increase for residential ratepayers since 1995-96, when rates went up 16 per cent.
The increase has been attributed to the loss of income due to the Covid lockdown, the cost of replacing infrastructure, the library upgrade and Let's Get Wellington Moving.

Here is a fun and easy way to reuse a plastic bottle! These are the basic instructions for creating a plastic bottle planter. Creative fun for the kids and recycling those plastic bottles? We call that a win-win.

These are the basic instructions for creating a plastic bottle planter. Creative fun for the kids and recycling those plastic bottles? We call that a win-win.
They look adorable with succulents (cactus or herbs would also work) and chances are the planters will last for a while.
You’ll need:
• Plastic bottles
• Sharpie
• Acrylic paint & brushes
• Pencil (for sketching details)
• Scissors
1. Use the sharpie to mark out the shape of your animal on the bottle.
2. With scissors roughly cut out your shapes. After the top of the bottle is removed go back around and clean up the edges. Wipe clean (make sure bottle is clean and dry).3. Paint the bottle with chosen shade of acrylic paint, this will take several coats. Tip: use a hair dryer to speed drying between coats. Spray paint made for plastic can be used if you already have a can at home.
4. Once dry, use the pencil to sketch the eyes, mouth, and other details, and paint over with your desired colours.
5. Fill with soil and your favourite succulents. These also make cute containers to keep anything in (pencils, food, toys, beads) as well as colourful décor for your kids’ room.
We hope you enjoyed our tutorial and if you make a one we would love to see a picture!

George Taggart was boarding at a bus stop outside the Blind Foundation offices on Adelaide Rd, along with three women, who were also blind, when he was told his large white poodle Guss was not allowed on board.
Taggart was also carrying an identity card confirming that he was blind, which includes a picture of Guss.
Metlink has apologised and said it would ensure drivers are aware of the rules.

The doll is in undamaged condition and is 42cm tall. She is dressed in a dark blue evening gown with necklace and tiara and comes with a wooden and glass display case . There are also some free outfits from another Princess Diana doll. This would make a good Christmas present. Make an offer by PM.
