Swan Plants for Monarch Butterflies
Our kids love watching the Monarch caterpillars turn into butterflies in summer but we always run out of swan plants for them to eat. So this year we grew our own and the kids are selling the extra plants. $5 each. They are egg free as have been in a greenhouse and are about 50 to 80cm. If you need some or would like a plant and caterpillar to watch the process let us know or find us on Trade Me as the seller in Casebrook. Thanks

MISSING CAT
Hey neighbours,
Koco my black cat is missing, from Ilam Road. It's been 11 days now, since 12/11/24. She's definitely not under the house or hiding anywhere and we've done everything we can to bring her home at this stage, but will always appreciate advice or other ideas. Before she went missing she was coming home and eating and cuddling etc every day, morning, night, and throughout. If anyone sees her anywhere we'd really appreciate a message :) Thank you so much!
-She's microchipped, three years old, wearing (could have lost) a red studded collar with my number and her name attached to a red heart name tag.
We really miss her 😢💔
