Hi everyone,

Sorry to post this item this morning, but I found a dead cat on the way to Linden station, on the pathway of Handyside (West entrance), not far from Collins Ave. It's white and ginger patch in colour. I think it's only recently died as still has rigour mortis. I removed the body (currently in my garage), if you know anyone who has a cat that is missing and fits this description please contact me. If this is possibly yours, then I am very sorry for your loss.

I am going to try and take it to Rappaw today (who I phoned) to see if it's chipped and contact the owners - not sure how I will get on as I don't have a car and I doubt uber will be happy carrying a dead cat.

Meet Gabe, who is deaf but sounds like a lot of fun.

"I was transferred from Porirua Animal Control. I am a special dude who has had an unusual start to my rehoming journey. I am completely deaf but that doesn't stop me having a great time! I am a loveable boy who has stolen the hearts of everyone at the centre. I am looking for an experienced owner, who has a suitable property for me to thrive in. I'm always up for a walk or a game to play, and I love to find things to do and keep active. I am looking for a home with teenagers or adults, and a home without cats or small animals. I am happy to play with other active dogs, and love to be social with both people and dogs. If you are interested in me and my goofy personality - chat to the canine team."

Looking for some linseed oil

Hayden from Johnsonville

Hi everyone, I'm just wondering if anyone has about 30mls of raw linseed oil they could pass on cheap or free? I need to revive some window putty for a one off repair so it's not worth buying a big bottle as most of it wont be used.

But they are not just there for fun, but to improve their brains.
Dancing has so many beneficial effects on the brain that it is now being used to treat people with Parkinson’s disease, which affects about 1 in 500 Kiwis.
“Motion is lotion, getting people moving is really important,” dance leader and physiotherapist Rachel Horwell​ said.
