for Rosie
Hi everyone i have made a Givealittlepage for Rosie to raise funds for another operation. Rosie is my doggie who is at the top of my posts. We have been battling through this past month and i would like to ask my neighbours if you can help us. Rosie and i will be so grateful and will for ever be in your debt. I don't like Facebook so have chosen to come to my neighbours. If enough money is raised the excess i have told givealittle to make a foundation in Rosies name, to help animal shelters and neighbourly people like yourselves to be able to take their fur babies to their vet for their basic check ups and flea/worming needs with those funds. So come on people lets get busy. Every little bit counts. I tried to add the link to the Givealittlepage for Rosie but it didn't work. This is what the link looks like so i hope you can get it to work. That would be great. Otherwise go to the Givealittle page on google. Many blessings and Hi Paws from Rosie who can't wait to go back to her favourite thing walkies. Thanks from Julia. givealittle.co.nz...
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
