Got space for a couple of pet roosters? 🐓🐓

Community Engagement Advisor from Greater Wellington Regional Council

Sadly when people don’t have any need for roosters they do sometimes just dump them. We’ve had a call about a couple of roosters or chickens who have made their home at the roundabout at Riverstone Terraces.

They’ve been there for a while and have a pretty good set up as some in the community are looking after them. However we can’t really leave them there and do need to do something with them due to health and safety concerns. They look in pretty good shape but we do know the community is split about them being there.

Obviously we want to rehome them first, rather than have to humanly kill them, so if anyone could adopt them please do private message us urgently. Rather than just dumping these animals we hope that in the future people do try to rehome them themselves over social media or through animal groups in the first instance.

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.
