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.
What word sums up 2024, neighbours?
If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!

Advice on hedgehog please
Hi neighbours
We seem to have a hedgehog walking around our lawn for the last few days during the day. We thought it was just a one off when we first saw him/her and put some bread out soaked in milk ( have since learned that this isn’t good ) but he’s been seen a few other times since. When we tried to pick him up I noticed his eye was closed or crusty almost and he had a patch where the spikes were missing ( is this mange ?)
We don’t know what to do to get it help. Does anyone know if there’s a rescue type place that can help?
