KITTEN SEASON HAS BEGAN AGAIN AND FUNDS NEED TO BE RAISED.

Bronwyn Reader from Cat Rescue Christchurch

Hello community

Cat Rescue Christchurch has set up a Givealittle page to help with the expected influx of kittens coming into our care. Would love for you to go and have alook and read about our first lot of four kittens born into our care, (last years final tally was over 500 kittens rehomed) and see if you can help us. Every donation over $5 is tax deductible (which means that you will get 33% back on your tax return as you get a receipt by Givealittle site)

Link is givealittle.co.nz... so best to copy and paste to your search tab.

Thanks for listening and if you would like to volunteers your time please go to our website and see what sort of help you can provide.

Kind Regards
Bronwyn.

Ps if you love quiz nites, we are having one on the 5th of November. Poster below. Great prizes and raffles will be available.


IT WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU COULD SHARE THIS POSTER WITH PEOPLE AND WORKPLACES SO WE CAN GET MORE TEAMS AND HENCE MORE MONIES RAISED TO HELP.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
