Have you seen Rusty?
Hi folks I know this is a long shot however our cat Rusty has gone by the looks of it for a bit of a wander and our guess is she may have stepped in to explore someone's shed without realising it and has been locked inside for the night?
We had her around us at 2pm yesterday and has not been seen since. We expected her to pop home at some point in the morning however she never came in which is why we expect she has probably been locked inside somewhere.
Her name is Rusty. We're located on Horotiu Road down near the Vege Shop so we don't imagine her wandering very far but we would really like our fur baby home.
If anyone has a spare moment during the day I would love it if you could please just pop your head in your shed or garage to see if she may have wandered in there.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
