Missing Cats

Lorraine from Northpark

In 2021, two of our three cats moved out of our home. We had been in our current home for 1 year, and asked a neighbour to feed our three cats while we went on a family holiday. When we arrived home, our remaining cat had anxiety (which was new for him) and our other two cats had left. We searched … View moreIn 2021, two of our three cats moved out of our home. We had been in our current home for 1 year, and asked a neighbour to feed our three cats while we went on a family holiday. When we arrived home, our remaining cat had anxiety (which was new for him) and our other two cats had left. We searched and searched, but we did also keep hoping that they might return. We adore our cats and had hand raised two of them from kittens, whom were born in our home.

However, we are now feeling grief and despair. Our best hopes that our Artie (5yr old tabby) and Sherlock (8 yr old ginger and white) would come home have not come true.

Our 15 yr old is still devastated and has now mounted a Community Wide Search. Posters are going up around the neighbourhood, and we are offering a Cash Reward.

Our 15 year old would be ecstatic to have the cat-babies returned. Our existing cat, Polly, still has anxiety. He relied on the other two, and he just hasn't ever returned to his perky, silly self. We may need to medicate him for his anxiety. Or! How wonderful it would be if our Cat friends could be located.

Sherlock is nearly 8, and he is a heart-melting ginger and white fella who is adept at finding willing cat-devotees. His style is to find several homes that adore him: and he lives in each of them. Simultaneously. He has done this in the past, and may be doing this now.

Polly, the black cat, is still our cat. The cats who are missing are Sherlock (ginger and white) and Artie (brown tabby with a grey tabby tail.)

MEGANZ School of Visual Arts Term 2 Begins

Our Art Development courses are beginning again for Term 2 from Tuesday 3rd May for eight weeks.

We focus on a range of disciplines such as - Drawing, Painting, Mixed Media, and Sculpture within these courses.

The term is broken into a combination of tutor and student-initiated sessions, whereby I do demonstrations and structured lessons for some of the time, and then I encourage students to follow what they would like to focus on. Within the class, each student is working on their own projects and working at their own pace and from their own level of ability. This I find is really beneficial in the fact students are more likely to compare their current work with their own past work and not against someone else's work in the class. They are on their own journey.

Classes are for ages 9 through to adults. Up to 8 students per class.
They are run from my home studio in Howick and they have been going since 2007.

I also like to help teenage art students with their College artboard work. I offer one-on-one lessons, group lessons, and casual lessons within the group class times.

The beautiful image below is drawn by 15-year-old Mabel Zhang
Hope to hear from you and/or your child soon.

Pretty in pastel

Mayor Goff was reported recently as suggesting that some service cut-backs may have to be made in Auckland due to budget pressures.

Yesterday the finishing touches were being made to the repair of the footpath on the North side of the Ti Rakau bridge - filling the gaps between the new paving slabs and the surrounding footpath with cold-mix bitumen.

It looked to me like a very, very small job but there were 2 traffic control trucks and 1 Fulton Hogan truck and 7 men in hi-viz jackets, one of whom was using a shovel to place and smooth the filling compound.

When I returned, around 1/2 an hour later, the same 7 people and three trucks were filling a tiny pothole in the road surface - again 1 person with a shovel, but this time the other 6 weren't even pretending to watch him working.

I wonder how much this cost us.
