Free Female Cat
Hello,
Peaches is a 21 month old female cat whom we adopted from SPCA over a year ago. Unfortunately, in the past 9 months, she has decided that she no longer likes our house (we have other cats that were absolutely amazing together until then). She runs away and she gets taken to the vets who call me and I bring her back home, only for her to be taken away.
She's absolutely healthy, no issues. Microchipped and desexed. According to my discussions with the vet, she probably needs a place with no other cats, even preferably something with an outside space for her to get used to.
DM me if you're interested. She's with us for now, but there's a risk she may run off again. We're in New Windsor, near New Windsor School.
Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Thousands of police warnings could be wiped because of protocol breaches
Thousands of formal warnings issued by police could be wiped from official records and compulsory training for all staff has been introduced because police haven't followed proper protocol for years, the Herald can reveal. Relying on formal warnings during police vetting has also been stopped nationwide because of the botch-up, and police are now inviting anyone who has concerns about a formal warning they've received to contact police and request a review of their records.
The background: Deficiencies in the formal warning system were first identified in 2021, after a High Court judge found the way warnings were issued breached the law. Central to the court’s ruling was that police didn’t understand that for a formal warning to be issued, a suspect must accept responsibility for their offending, and there must be sufficient evidence to prove the offence. After that ruling, police said they’d review their policies. However, the Herald has learned that four years since flaws were first identified, significant issues remain. A review conducted last year found that of a sample of 467 warnings issued between 2019 and 2024, only 171 were compliant. Police said those found to have breached policy were then wiped from official records.
