Hi Group

This is a plug for New Zealand's biggest Facebook rabbit welfare group who are looking for you to join if you have a pet rabbit or tell your friends & family about us if they have pet rabbits.

We are here for rabbit owners to learn new information about their bunnies & the best way to care for them. Ethical breeders who focus on purebred lines, responsible re-homing, safe practices & rabbit welfare are welcome. Unethical breeders, meat farmers (refer The Rabbit Council of NZ), animal hoarders/abusers are NOT welcome. Our site allows members to post any rabbit related sale items, share photos, express new ideas & even find your bunnies new forever homes if needed.

We have the biggest educational database in the country that is always expanding, along with linked pages FLUFFY BUNNIES for re-homing, FORAGE NZ for rabbit supplies and BUNS INC for educational information. We invite you to become a member of a fun group and spread the word at our fabulous bunnies are.

Only flush the 3P's

The Team from Wellington Water

It's amazing the sorts of things we find blocking wastewater pumps.

It's amazing the sorts of things we find blocking wastewater pumps.

A pager? A walkie talkie? What do you think it is?

One thing we do know is it should not be flushed down the loo! These types of items cause blockages in the wastewater network. They can also cause blockages and damage to the pipes within your property boundary, which can cost you a lot in plumber bills to fix!

The only things that should be flushed down the toilet are the 3 P's:
-Pee
-Poo
-Paper (toilet paper that is)

Wet wipes (even 'flushable' ones), sanitary items, shampoo and conditioner bottles, diapers etc should be thrown in the rubbish bin, and phones/pagers should be taken out of back pockets before heading into the dunny.

The legacy of people taken into state care who suffered neglect and abuse is a stain on our country’s history. Over the next three years, the Royal Commission will listen to stories about the experiences of people in state care and examine ways to stop any further abuse.

Before that process can begin, the Terms of Reference to define the scope and purpose of the Inquiry need to be set. Sir Anand would like to hear your views on the draft Terms of Reference so we can work together to make sure we don’t repeat the mistakes of the past.
