Guy Fawkes and your pets
Guy Fawkes can be a scary time for many animals. This Thursday evening, please make sure your dog is secure on your property and if possible, keep them inside your house or garage.
If you can, stay home with your pet as they are less likely to be stressed with someone they trust close by.
Turn up the TV or radio, close windows and draw the curtains so that they won't see the bright flashes and bangs from the fireworks. Familiar sounds and comforts will keep them happy.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.
