I have a ginger and white 5-6 year old tom cat I need to re-home by 7th July as we are moving and are not allowed to take him. He was a stray that we took in, but were never meaning to keep. I rang cats protection but there is a 16 week waiting list. Does anyone know anywhere that would take him? … View moreI have a ginger and white 5-6 year old tom cat I need to re-home by 7th July as we are moving and are not allowed to take him. He was a stray that we took in, but were never meaning to keep. I rang cats protection but there is a 16 week waiting list. Does anyone know anywhere that would take him? If I can't find somewhere by next week I will just have to leave him and I really don't want to do that.

It is now easy to check online if a product recall applies to you, as there is a Product Recalls database. Read about this on our website.
Earlier this year, the government issued just its second compulsory recall ever. That was a big deal because despite a voluntary recall for Takata airbags floating around since 2013, the government – taking a page from the Aussies – decided to step in after realising the recall was progressing … View moreEarlier this year, the government issued just its second compulsory recall ever. That was a big deal because despite a voluntary recall for Takata airbags floating around since 2013, the government – taking a page from the Aussies – decided to step in after realising the recall was progressing far too slowly, with less than a quarter of those affected in New Zealand replaced since 2013.
That kind of success rate, however, is surprisingly all too common for voluntary recalls. Consumer NZ estimates that “less than half” of product recalls actually work, and while it’s normally better for items where customers details are noted down (like cars), common household items that are cheap and easily replaceable (like indoor electric heaters) can remain in use months – even years – after a recall is issued.
Below is a selection of recalled items we think are most relevant to consumers (part two looks at items specifically targeted at babies and children). Of course, it goes without saying that this is by no means an exhaustive list – for that you need to be looking at the government’s official website.
