Rental needed

Magda from Howick

Unfortunately I found myself in the same situation as hundreds of kiwis and I need to move out from my current rental.(apparently landlord is moving in)
I'm after 4 bedrooms, 2 bthms and double garage place in howick and surrounding suburbs
The only problem is I actually need a big garden not because of pets or children but because of my huge passion for gardening.
I've been in my current rental for 4.5 yrs,have great references,painted all the bedrooms,bought new curtains, paid for green bin every mth as I was maintaining their(mine) huge garden,installed 5 raised beds and put greenhouse on so I can have my own vegetables most of the year and where I start my seedlings which in turn I sell every second Saturday at Howick market.
If you know of anyone that is planning to rent their house in near future please let me know
I'm on Trade Me every day but most properties have either very small section or concrete around them
Thanks for reading

Worst Xmas ever?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.

Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
