Missing cat Barbosa is his name.
Hi our cat Barbosa has gone missing in the last 24 hours. He is 10 years old with arthritis and can't jump very well. He is extremely friendly. We lost him about 7 years ago due to the fact that he likes to go into peoples houses and he got stuck in someone's garage and couldn't get out the cat door as it was locked from the inside. He is microchipped. We are very concerned that he might have been hit by a car on Brian Crescent in the night and sometimes they go into shock and hide so can everyone around the Brian Crescent area please check your gardens or under your houses or garage? If anyone finds him can you please contact us on 021 2222 011 Louise

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