TOP TEN TIPS TO KEEP YOUR PETS HAPPY DURING THE FIREWORKS SEASON

Sheralee from Te Atatu Peninsula

TOP TEN TIPS TO KEEP YOUR PETS HAPPY DURING THE FIREWORKS SEASON
1. Provide a den or hiding place for your pet.

2. Use an ADAPTIL or FELIWAY Diffusers as close to the den or hiding place as possible, or where your pet spends most of its time.

3. Keep dogs and cats inside during fireworks and check that their microchip is up to date.

4. Walk your dog early in the evening or morning before fireworks start.

5. Ensure windows, doors and cat flaps remain closed during firework season to both prevent pets escaping and reduce the noise.

6. Ensure you cats have access to enough litter trays during firework season especially if you're keeping them inside.

7. Provide distractions, in the form of new toys and chews. Draw curtains and put the TV on to mask any noise.

8. DO NOT punish your pet! This will only make your pet more distressed.

9. Try not to leave your pets alone when fireworks are going off.

10. Continue to use ADAPTIL or FELIWAY after the party or fireworks season ends.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Chrstmas light show

Murray from Henderson

Hi everyone.
I have put my Xmas lights up and am currently doing the final testing.
This is an animated show set to music, so drive by viewing is not the best.
There are speakers out so you will be able to hear the music that goes with the lights.
As last year, I will have my shows running from 1st of December until 31st of Dec inclusive.
As I have neighbours, Please respect them and their properties.

Show times will be,
Sunday to Thursday 9pm to 10pm.
Friday and Saturday 9pm to 10:30pm.

Last but not least the address.
28 Harrington Rd
Henderson.
