🦮🐩WEIGHT WEEK 🐕‍🦺🐩

Hamilton Small Animal Veterinary Centre

Welcome to 'Weight Week' which we are running in conjunction with Royal Canin pet nutrition.🐈‍⬛🐕

We are concentrating this week on overweight pets and what problems can arise. Keeping your pet at a healthy weight is one of the most overlooked keys to a happy, healthy life. It can also be one of the most difficult tasks to undertake without knowing the vital factors that contribute to your pet’s weight.

We have some great Vet Talk video’s from Vet Simon on our Facebook Page. Information on our Weight Clinic run by Vet Nurse Angel and an awesome promo from Royal Canin.
❤️So let’s get started!❤️

🐈‍⬛Body Score Charts🐩

Have a look at the charts in the pictures to see if any of your fur family members are overweight. You might be surprised. The charts shown are for a cat and a medium dog. Even if you have a small or a large dog, the medium dog chart will give you the information you require.❤️

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

How long it’ll take depends on who you ask and you can measure it in years, elections, or Rugby world cups.

But Hamilton City will eventually be home to more people than Wellington City - likely in somewhere between 24 or 34 years according to Statistics NZ and Waikato University.

What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
