Cat found on Orakei Rd
This morning on my way to work I found a cat that had unfortunately been run over on Orakei Rd, just up the hill from Palmers, near Manawa Rd. Unfortunately I couldn't do anything for it but I didn't want to leave it on the road to be further damaged, so I moved it to the grass berm. I am sorry I didn't have time to go around the houses to see if it belonged to someone as I was on my way to work. Hopefully someone will know who it belongs to. I am so sorry for your loss.
Thank you also to the kind woman who also stopped and helped slow down the traffic so I could retrieve the cat. You were very comforting to me as I was pretty upset.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
