Kitty Haven Cat Rescue are now offering $30 Microchipping. This includes the chip being registered on the nationwide database with NZCAR.
This is a good thing to get done this time of year as Cats tend to wander more looking for "Love," even when de-sexed and traveling up to 5km a day can easily get lost.
A registered microchip means your cat if found, can be scanned at any vet or rescue and be returned to you quickly.
Also a great time of year to make sure your information is up to date with NZCAR.

Christchurch has been named as a finalist for New Zealand’s most beautiful large city - competing against Tauranga for the honour.

Keep New Zealand Beautiful announced the finalists of its Beautiful Awards 2023 on Tuesday. The not-for-profit organisation has held the awards annually since 1972 and this year's winners will be announced November 9.

“The awards are a chance for Kiwis to put their community on the map and to celebrate a stand-out sustainability initiative," Keep New Zealand Beautiful chief executive Heather Saunderson said.

“This collective contribution is key to maintaining the biodiversity of Aotearoa and to creating a waste and climate conscious future for the next generations.

Christchurch was selected as a finalist in the large city category (major urban area with 100,000 or more residents) because of its council’s focus on sustainable local food production and distribution systems, a statement by Keep New Zealand Beautiful said.
