Behind the fun is a serious mission. Many of New Zealand’s native species are in serious trouble. Bird of the Year raises awareness of their habitats, the threats they face, and how we can protect our feathered taonga. Important work that we love seeing!
Who was last year’s champ? 🏆 The Yellow-eyed penguin, one of the world’s rarest penguins. But this year, Neighbourly is keeping a close eye on another ocean wanderer: the Tītī (Cook’s petrel).

We hope this brings a smile!

My neighbour's cat hasn't been home since Saturday 27 September, so with his permission, I'm sharing the details here.
Missing Johnsonville cat. Kimball Place and Branscombe St area, possibly Lenox Grove. He also has access to Ōhariu Road via the back yard.

Answers to the name Sterling, and a high-pitched chirping/purring sound.
Please check garages and sheds that may have been open on Saturday (last day he was home) as he's a nosey bugger and may have snuck in when no one was looking and got trapped in there.
Generic tuxedo cat. Four white paws. And a belly that swings when he runs
Anyone needing moving boxes? Good condition Banana boxes and a few other smaller boxes.

Now that the weekend’s over and things have calmed down a bit, the Neighbourly Team are keen to hear from you: how are you feeling about it all?
Summer’s coming, and holidays are on the horizon … should we be focusing on the future rather than the past quarter? Or is this dip in the road a real concern?
