❄️WINTER WELLNESS❄️ - Winter is here!
❤️Do You Have A Pet Showing Signs Of Old Age?❤️
🐈⬛ Is your cat more than 11 years old?
🐕 Your small dog more than 10 years old?
🐩 Or your big dog more than 7 years old?
Then these loyal companions are considered SENIORS.
The older we and our pets get the more predisposed to disease we all are but old age is not a disease itself. Many of the issues that come with getting older are treatable.
We recommend younger animals see their vet a least once a year for a health check up, but senior pets we recommend every 6 months, as things can change faster when they are older.
🥶Winter time and cooler temperatures can bring out the aches and pains, so why not have a Winter Wellness Check for your senior fur family members.
Arthritis is particularly common in our senior pets and is just a part of the aging process. Arthritis can be managed, so if you have noticed your pet is stiff in the mornings, jumping and playing less or your cats fur is matted particularly around their back end, give the team a call on 07 8492963 and book them in for a Winter Wellness Check!💕
🐾❤️Your Pet Will Thank you For It❤️🐾
This handsome gentleman is ‘Scamp’ who will be eleven this year and has been a wonderful client of ours for many years!🥰

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
36.4% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.6% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Some Choice News!
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!
