Hutt City Council is seeking public feedback on proposed amendments to the Control of Animals Bylaw to include a section on the Keeping of Cats. The key proposals are:
Mandatory microchipping of cats
Mandatory registration of microchipped cats on the New Zealand Companion Animal Register (NZCAR)
Mandatory desexing of cats
These changes would help to reduce feral cat populations and make it easier to reunite lost cats with their people.
We want to ensure our beloved moggies aren’t causing harm to wildlife, and managing numbers by desexing will reduce the number of domestic and feral cats in Lower Hutt. Desexing also has welfare benefits for the desexed animal such as being less aggressive and less prone to urine and scent marking behaviour.
Submissions on these proposals are open until 5pm on 6 November 2023.
It takes about five minutes to give your feedback. Submissions can be made anonymously but if you wish to make a verbal submission at a hearing, your name and contact details are required.I feel that this is wrong. Many people have a cat for company and it would be an extra cost 1. in running the programme and implementing it
2. cost to the cat owners.
I feel that the Hutt City Council needs to focus on the sewage and waste not getting more money from people who have a loving cat.

One simple and cost-effective method is the use of curtains. This article will explore how curtains can reduce heat and provide a more comfortable living space.
How Curtains Reduce Heat
Blocking Sunlight: Curtains act as a barrier to the sun's rays, preventing them from heating up your room. By closing the curtains during the hottest part of the day, you can reduce the temperature inside.
Material Matters: The type of fabric plays a crucial role in how effective the curtains are at blocking heat. Thick, dense materials like velvet or blackout fabrics can block more heat compared to sheer or lightweight fabrics.
Colour Choices: Darker colours tend to absorb more heat, whereas lighter colours reflect it. While dark curtains may block more sunlight, they might also trap more heat. On the other hand, lighter curtains can keep a room cooler by reflecting heat away.
Insulating Properties: Some curtains have a special lining that adds an extra layer of insulation, keeping the heat outside and the cool air inside. These can be particularly effective in maintaining a comfortable temperature.
