This canine is thrilled she saved a kitten's life!

Reporter Franklin County News

Look at how pleased Brandy is with herself, after she donated blood to save little kitten Cognac, after he was dumped and nearly eaten to death by fleas.

It is rare for vets to perform a xenotransfusion, but the kitten was knocking on death's door, so as a last resort, used Brandy's blood to revive the feline.

This is just one of the many tales Franklin Cat Rescue's Melanie Marshall has to tell - after all, she lives with 77 cats!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
