We do now have a beat up old hutch I’m happy to give away if anyone is interested... it will be going to the dump otherwise. Cheers.

Sadly we lost one of our guinea pigs yesterday and now it’s time to find the other one a good home if possible. So if you keep piggies and are interested let me know. There is a hutch available as well but it has lots of wear and tear and needs some tlc.

Plan to turn Christchurch rest home into boarding house baffles residents

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

The residents of a Christchurch rest home might have left a long time ago, but a new breed of “professionals” could soon move in.

The facility, in a quiet Papanui street occupied by just 32 homes, is being remodelled into a boarding house to accommodate up to 75 people aged between 25 and 45.

Residents are vehemently opposed to the 57-room facility and about 25 have written passionate submissions pleading for the boarding house not to be consented.
