Missing Cat

Cheryl from Opaki

We have just moved to State H/way 2 between Masterton and Carterton from. Upper Plain. Our cat got out and has taken himself for an adventure. Could be on his way back to the old place.
He has been missing since Monday 29th April.
He is a large fluffy grey cat with a slightly pushed in nose and large feet.
He was wearing a black collar with white fish on it that has a nameplate with my phone number.
Please keep an eye out for him.

Handyman wanted.

Elisabeth from Carterton District

Is there a local handyman in Carterton who can swap our fridge freezer door hinges from the right side, to the left side.
This is so that the door will open in the opposite direction.
Many thanks.
