Need help, Frankie needs rehoming!
Frankie needs rehoming.
He’s got a very sweet soul, he’s very independent and is happy doing his own thing most of the time, extremely easy cat to care for. Because he was a stray, he’ll also take a while to warm up to you. So if you have the patience and kindness for him, then please let me know🥺 He’s extremely well behaved and trained.
He likes to have access from inside to outside and will most likely sleep in the sun most of the day. He has a little obsession with cardboard - his best toy !
After he settles in and knows his new home, he’ll want to be in and out, so if you’d ever want to go away for a weekend, thanks to him being independent, he doesn’t need 24/7 care; his food bowl and water bowl can be swapped for the automatic top up ones, and a window or cat flap can be left open for him, with perhaps a family member or friend popping in to give him love. He’s that easy going.
He’s desexed, microchipped, recently had all his yearly shots and de flea/worm. He’s got beds/ toys/ litter box, and also a big 10kg bag of food which will last a very long time. Won’t need to pay for anything(Except the $8 cat litter I get him but that’s peanuts).
Unfortunately, as much as I want him to stay with us- we can’t afford to bring him along as we move country despite trying and looking into.
If I feel you might be a suit for Frankie I’ll provide more details then.

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

Harbour Bridge lane closure - protests
The Treaty Principles Bill was introduced to parliament last week and could have ramifications on the partnership between the Crown and Māori.
Hīkoi mō te Tiriti (March for the Treaty of Waitangi) set off from Cape Rēinga on Monday morning and is expected to reach Wellington next Tuesday. It has now passed through Kaitaia, Kawakawa, Whangārei, Dargaville and is passing through Auckland on Wednesday.
What you need to know today:
- The hīkoi is due to cross the Auckland Harbour Bridge about 9.30am on Wednesday. Two northbound lanes will be closed at some point before the crossing, and remain closed during it.
- NZTA shared at 8:50am Wednesday:
'Curran St northbound on-ramp will be closed shortly, with two northbound lanes on the Harbour Bridge expected to close from approx 9.30am this morning. Allow extra time for likely delays through this area.'
- The hīkoi is expected to go across the Harbour Bridge, in a controlled fashion before marching through parts of the CBD towards Okahu Bay.
- Auckland commuters should expect traffic disruption in vicinity of both sides of the Harbour Bridge.
Stuff reporter Steve Kilgallon was at Stafford Park on the north side of the Harbour Bridge at 8.30am Wednesday and shared:
"I just walked through Stafford Park, where there’s about 400-500 people quietly assembled and more arriving; and about 20 police standing over near the motorway off ramp. Lot of Tino Rangatira flags in evidence, local streets very busy with parked cars."
Police have shared that they will respond accordingly to any issues that may arise along the route.
