**UPDATE- Joe Joe has found a furever home, thanks for your help**

Daphne from Aro Valley

Joe Joe is a cuddly moggie who needs a home. His humans are moving overseas at the end of the month. They had a few options for rehoming Joe Joe but they've all not worked out unfortunately.

His humans are moving overseas at the end of the month. They had a few options for rehoming Joe Joe but they've all not worked out unfortunately. They are looking for a permanent home for him. They were considering a temporary home and then getting him relocated. However with COVID-19, this is not likely to happen anytime soon so would be better if he had a permanent home. Joe Joe's humans are willing to pay for an annual vet check and his food. Please contact Luke at sixmtwltn@gmail.com .

Some details about JoeJoe:
* Just over 10 years old.
* Cuddly boy who looks just like Mog the Cat from the storybooks.
* Not on any meds.
* Eats Royal Canin dry Anallergenic to stop him getting itchy skin.
* Very friendly cat, great with people and children.
* Has lived with other cats in the past.
* Loves sleeping by the fire and cuddles.
* Loves his food.
* Currently living in Aro Valley.

I occasionally feed Joe Joe and he's a very cute cat who looks like Mog reincarnated! Posting this as his humans aren't on Neighbourly. Thanks.

I don’t need stitch instructions or dress patterns but would like to see some pictures of finished stitched designs, and their corresponding stitching patterns. … View moreDoes anyone have any smocking magazines, books or patterns I could have, borrow or buy (or  :-)  swap for a jar of tomato relish)?

Perhaps they've learned more about hand washing and germs, or maybe they want to talk about having mum or dad home more often, or learning from home. Kids can write a sentence or two to be included in print by emailing kelly.dennett@stuff.co.nz, by Friday, July 10, at 5pm. Their first names and ages may be used in print. Parents, if you're happy for your children to be photographed please let us know.
