Cat Rescue Charity Collection at Belfast New World this saturday from 9-5
Hi everyone.
We currently have hit our record intake with 175 kittens in our care as of Friday 02/03/2018. A lot of these kittens are either abandoned by humans out in rural or bush areas or as a result of unneutered stray cats AND unneutered DOMESTIC cats.
We try to educate on the benefits of desexing and hope that the number of kittens that come into our care decrease but we are not seeing this at the moment. As we have no centre, we have an volunteers house as the initial intake area and then the healthy kittens are distributed out into fosters homes to be socialised and to get some one on one loving car.
So once again (on an immediate level)we need the communities help in the following ways:-
*Monetary donations to help pay our vet bills. Both Jan and Feb 2018 bills were $16,000 + Each.
*Donations of smelly cheap cat food which we can lure the strays into the trapping cage, send them to the vets to be neutered.
*Donations of kitten food, which lightens the load of the lovely foster volunteers who do it out of their own time and money
*Donations of litter, for the same reason above.
Thank you for reading and hope to see you tomorrow at the collections. Love this collection, the venue and the people. Cat Rescue has collected their once before and had nothing but support.
Psss the first photo is of our kittens that are in the intake house. They need to be old enough and heathly enough to go to fosters home.
Second photo is a stray that was domesticated and is now a loving house cat. A lot of time and effort was put in by the volunteer foster to make this happen.
Third photo was of a 6 month old kitten who was ear tipped to be released (after neutering), but someone in intake saw her potential. ^ months is quite old to try and socialise but Nina was socialised and adopted to a lovely family in Oamaru. She was my foster and I got this message on Xmas day to say she was the apple of everyone's eye, the family dogs, the chickens, mum and especially the grandchildren.
NEVER GIVE UP ON OUR ANIMALS. THE ONLY VOICE THEY HAVE IS OURS AND WE NEED TO DO THE BEST FOR THEM.
🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠
A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
☔️ Where’d the summer go?
It’s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Canterbury "summer" has felt a bit wet this year! We’ve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately 🌧️ In fact, the Post reports that Christchurch experienced almost double our usual!
While the forecast is looking bright for this weekend (fingers crossed!), we aren't out of the woods ... there are a few more cold fronts lining up before winter hits.
We want to hear from you: What are your go-to rainy-day activities? Whether you’re a local legend at the indoor courts or a professional movie-marathoner, share your secrets with us!
