Lost Cat - little black cat, very friendly, Riccarton

Tanja from Riccarton

Kia ora lovely people,

After managing to lose one cat several weeks ago (he was found by a kind person, hungry, but safe, three weeks later), I managed to lose another.

My little black cat Ida is missing from Pūriri Street in Riccarton. (Ida: pronounced "Eeeda")

She did not come home on Friday, the 21st of July. She may have just been hanging out at someone else's house for the recent wet weather. Ida is spayed and microchipped, but not wearing her usual collar, which I had taken off just that day because she was feeling a little bit under the weather.
She is very friendly and may just pretend that your home and your cat's food is hers.
If you see her, please let me know or take her to the vet to get the chip scanned. My gratitude will be eternal.

Here is my listing on the lost pet register: www.lostpet.co.nz......

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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!

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!
