Committee abandons SPCA ship

Matt Bowen Reporter from Waikato Times

Morning all,

Waikato's beleaguered SPCA branch is no longer under local control.

After closing in December, head office has stepped in and limited services are set to resume on Tuesday, January 31.

Let's hope they're up and running at full capacity again soon.

This one is pretty simple. You're a Neighbourly member so connecting with your community is obviously pretty important to you. So this tip is more of a challenge; this year (or this weekend!) make it your mission to meet someone new living near you.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!
______
Remember 86% of Kiwis want to get to know their neighbours better, but just don't see them around much (71%). Take the first step!

THANK YOU FROM MY MUM
Darron took me out for lunch to-day at Te Awa and on the way there I stopped in at the ladies room. We had done a bit of shopping beforehand and I put the bag on the hook behind the door in the cubicle. Went on to have lunch then said when we had eaten "where is the shopping" Darron? He replied "you had it". Panic!!!! Went back to the cubicle, no parcel. (I had bought a present to send over to Mum in Australia for her 92nd birthday in Feb). So we went to the information desk and yes it had been handed in by an honest lady. If by any chance that lady is reading this please accept a big thank you from me.

Listing on behalf.
5 year old cat free to approved home.
Change in circumstance means Cous Cous needs to find a new home. She has been a loved member of a family for 5 years.
Already desexed, will be up to date with vaccinations and microchipped before leaving.
Cous Cous would like a quieter life, she wouldn't suit a home with children or bouncy dogs. She has lived urban and is currently living rural.
She has a cute half tail due to an accident with a greyhound when younger.
If you can offer Cous Cous a loving forever home where she can lounge around and be someone's good mate then please PM me and I will assist in rehoming with the current owner.
