Home for Pet Pigs Required

Danae from Carterton District

Hi
We have 2 beautiful pet pigs that I need to rehouse (as we are moving to a non-lifestyle property). We are currently in Carterton.
Lucky is a female Captain Cook pig (around 5 years old) and Rhonda (Ronnie) is a female peach coloured mini-Kunekune (also around 5 years old). They are our pets that we have raised since babies and are just adorable.
We started training Lucky, who is incredibly intelligent, but we didn’t continue the training due to running out of time with human babies coming on the scene. She is very personable as a result, and would respond really well to more training, or just attention and love! She is like a big friendly dog, and has a great little sense of humour. She loves scratches and wallowing.
Rhonda is adorable. She is really cute and loves to graze and be hosed. She is quite a small kunekune and really gentle. Perfect as a fully-domesticated pig. In fact, I can see her all cosied up in front of someone’s fire.
Both girls currently live together in an outdoor sty with a shed and a run into our orchard. Lucky in particular loves going for short sprints, and Rhonda likes grazing, so some pasture would be ideal.
Although they get on, it’s not necessary to keep them together. They will however need to be rehoused with at least 1 other pig for company.
We are very upset that we have to give up our pets, and all we want is for them to go to a new home that will love and respect them and not use them for food, breeding or dog training!
Are you able to help?

Mitre 10 $20 Store Card Boxing Day Promotion

Dave from Masterton District

If you shopped at Mitre 10 Masterton on Boxing Day, redeemed a Mitre 10 Gift Card, but was refused a $20 Store Card for every $100 spent, contact Mitre 10 Customer & Store Support at customersupport@mitre10.co.nz.

Mitre 10 Masterton staff misinterpreted the promotion’s terms & conditions, as can be seen in the screenshot of the email I received in response to my query after my partner redeemed a $200 Mitre 10 Gift Card and was told she was ineligible for two $20 Store Cards
