SPCA calls for help in case of abandoned cats: Long Bay, Auckland

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

Recognise these cats?

The SPCA is appealing to the public for information after two female cats were dumped in a locked cage without food or water in Long Bay.

The tortoiseshell cats were abandoned on the side of the road on Wednesday in Long Bay Regional Park, Auckland.

An SPCA field officer rescued the animals after being alerted by a member of the public.

It is unknown how long the cats had been there.

They are about four years old and are not micro-chipped.

Both are in good health being cared for by SPCA Auckland staff.

Phone 09 256 7300, press 1 for welfare and ask for Inspector Andre Williams if you have any information.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
