Did you know fires have been banned and fire vigilance urged in this windy weather?

Denise Piper Reporter from Whangārei Leader

Fire and Emergency NZ has cancelled any fire permits in Northland and urged everyone to take extreme care, as the strong winds and dry weather creates difficult firefighting conditions until Monday. Firefighters are also on high alert, with helicopters at the ready, in case the wind causes flare-ups in one of three fires still burning in Kaipara and the Far North. This summer has been one of the worst fire seasons in decades, with nearly 3000 hectares burnt by four major fires, as well as numerous smaller vegetation fires.

Pet transport overseas

Kay from Central Whangarei

We are emigrating overseas and we are taking our cat with us. Does anyone know a pet transport company they can recommend.
I asked the vet but they didn’t know of any in particular. When I googled the subject loads of companies came up so it’s a lottery!
Just thought someone might know of one that they could recommend???
Thanks ☺️
