Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
🆘 Urgent – Missing Cat (Priestley Drive)
Hi neighbours,
Our 5-year-old female cat has been missing for almost a full day, and we are extremely worried.
She is an indoor and backyard-only cat and has never gone beyond our garden before, so this is very unusual for her.
📍 Last seen: Priestley Drive
📞 Contact: 022 640 1997
If you have seen her, or if she may be hiding in a garage, shed, or under a house, please check and contact us immediately.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much for your help.
Regards
Judy
