Come and support Cat Rescue Christchurch tomorrow at Northwood New World. We will be accepting money donations and donations of kitten food and litter, Laundry powder, paper towels etc.
If you can't make it to the collection, you could go to our website www.catrescuechch.org... and look at how to donate via our bank account, or our givealittle page.
You could also set up a automatic weekly donation (and claim off against your tax at year end) for as little as 1-2 dollars a week (We call this our Change for Cats Club) or from 5 + dollars a week (and we call this Paw Pal Regular Givers). Information re both is on our website.
We appreciate your support.
If you could like this post and tell family and friends we would be most grateful.

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!
Poll: Canterbury is thriving on paper... but are you seeing evidence of Canterbury's improving economy?
As reported in the Press, Reserve Bank Governor Anna Breman recently gave a shout-out to our region, calling Canterbury a "stand-out" for how we recover from tough times. With tech firms growing and exporters investing, the business side of things is looking bright!
👉 But we know that "business growth" doesn't always mean the weekly shop gets any cheaper. While the city expands, many families feel like they’re just trying to keep their heads above water.
We want to know: With the business buzz of 2026, do you feel like things are finally looking up for your household, or does it still feel like a climb?
