Been paying landlord rent but they don’t even own the place!

Kim from Tai Tapu

URGENT NEED HELP DESPERATELY!

*******Update*******
I have now found a new place and am moving over the next week. If there is anyone out there interested in earning some extra $ to help me move please get in touch via the phone number. Im moving out to to Oxford and anyone who has a 4wd and trailer would be particularly helpful.

Thanks to those who offered help and accomodation for the ducks.

*****end of update*******

I have just found out the rental property I have been paying rent to someone to for the last 9 months, (and have a tenancy agreement for) does not belong to the person I have been paying, but to the council.

I have been given 2 weeks to vacate and I have 40-50 ducks and a goose and desperately need somewhere that will take them.

If anyone can help please, please please, get in touch on 020 406 41485. In ChCh or North Canterbury.

Or if anyone knows if there is any way to appeal the council notice to give me some time to find somewhere to liveIm absolutely terrified of having no where to house my feather babies’

Not sure why the government have laws to prevent tenants being evicted on no notice if the local government can do that even though it’s got nothing to do with me that the landlord doesn’t own the land and I have been paying rent and have an agreement I signed in good faith.

I know I can take the landlord to court and probably will but right now I urgently need somewhere for me and my ducks who are like my children, to live.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
