Ginger tabby found on Wallace Rd
Hiya, beautiful Papatoetoe people. ♥
It is on a sad note I inform you that someone's beautiful ginger kitty was hit tonight on Wallace Rd 😞 Description: About 1-2 years old, ginger tabby.
I didn't witness the incident, but rather I found him/her on my way home from work this evening. I picked the little darling up, and laid it on the berm (on the left side of the road, not far down from New World.)
For obvious reasons I didn't take photos; if this is your furbaby I am so, so sorry for your loss 😞 I prayed over this baby, and pray you too will find comfort in this grief and loss ♥
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!
