Feeding Stray Cats
hi Neighbours, I'm wondering if anyone has spare cat food, hiding in the pantry - dry or wet cans/pouches as I'm feeding a small colony in East Tamaki where I work 3 days a week. Yes I live in Lake Rd, Hauraki.
They are living in a locked yard, where I have to gain access when the business people are there, under a large shipping container. I am going to get hold of SPCA or a rescue organisation to trap them as soon as I can bring myself to do it. If you could contact me that would be extremely helpful. I can collect it or you're welcome to come to mine to drop it off. Thank you in advance :-)

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.

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!
