Waikato SPCA frustrated with puppy dumping

Wayne Timmo Reporter from Waikato Times

Hi Neighbours,
It's been puppies filling up the Waikato SPCA lately but the kittens are on the way.

Remember to get your pets de-sexed if they are not already and contact the SPAC if you can help as a foster carer for the impending cat boom.

Hi neighbours,

Are you going out of your way to collect plastic bags before they become illegal in NZ? Some Kiwis have admitted they are stockpiling bags before they can no longer get them from supermarkets and petrol stations.

It's been noticed that some customers have been taking plastic bags for things like single chocolate bars and drinks "to save up".

Do you find plastic bags handy for bin liners? What eco-friendly tips and alternatives to plastic can you share with your neighbours? Leave a reply to share your thoughts.
