2 cats- female and sisters requiring an forever home

Karen from Papatoetoe

Hi
From my work colleague Sharlene:-
"I am hoping you may be able to help. My elderly mother has two tortoise shell adult cats; both spayed females (approx. 11 years old) and they are sisters, so need to go together. They are named Fluffy (because she is beautifully fluffy) and Mischief. They are fairly timid, (a little) anxious and undersocialised, they are house cats and use litter trays (although one has issues sometimes and goes besides the tray) – my mother does take them outside every day, but they predominantly stay inside (she and my late father have had them since they were kittens and they never let them outside because of the busy road they live on). My mother has health issues and unfortunately she is unable to care for the cats anymore. I unfortunately am unable to take on the cats as my landlord won’t allow animals and my brother has dogs.
We are against putting them down as they still have a life to live but are not sure what to do."
PS both cats are in good health

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
