SPCA Pet of the Day: Luke the Rabbit
Just before Christmas, five rabbits were found in a box in a Levin, left to fend for themselves with no home and no family. Four rabbits quickly became 11 after one gave birth to seven baby rabbits!
"I was born in SPCA's care after my mum was left in a box on the steps of SPCA Levin. Now I am here at SPCA Wellington looking for a forever home and a second chance at happiness.
All I've known is life in SPCA's care and now my caregivers want to find me a home to call my own and where I can binky, run and play to my heart's content. I may not look like your average domestic rabbit (you can blame my dad's genes for that!), but I have a sweet personality that I'd love to share with my loving family! I would love a home with a female rabbit to be friends with. I will need a secure outdoor pen for daytime, and an indoor space for nighttime so I can be a part of the family."
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.
