Lost Cat - little black cat, very friendly, Riccarton
Kia ora lovely people,
After managing to lose one cat several weeks ago (he was found by a kind person, hungry, but safe, three weeks later), I managed to lose another.
My little black cat Ida is missing from Pūriri Street in Riccarton. (Ida: pronounced "Eeeda")
She did not come home on Friday, the 21st of July. She may have just been hanging out at someone else's house for the recent wet weather. Ida is spayed and microchipped, but not wearing her usual collar, which I had taken off just that day because she was feeling a little bit under the weather.
She is very friendly and may just pretend that your home and your cat's food is hers.
If you see her, please let me know or take her to the vet to get the chip scanned. My gratitude will be eternal.
Here is my listing on the lost pet register: www.lostpet.co.nz......
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated

After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom
I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
Poll: Do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? ☔⚠️
As reported in the Press, the same low-pressure system that lashed the North Island over the weekend is now making its way south, bringing heavy rain and strong winds with it. It’s a soggy start to the week for many of us.
With more wild weather on the cards, we’re curious: do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? Or are you more of a “grab the torches and hope for the best” household?
