Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Wanted: Older Female Rabbit to Adopt

Natasha from Ashhurst - Pohangina

I'm looking for an older female rabbit to adopt as a companion for my desexed male Arlo.

He is sweet but a little bit bossy so an ideal companion would be gentle and happy to let him wear the pants, so to speak.

Once bonded they would live their best rabbit lives sharing a large insulated hutch in a 20m x 3m outside enclosure on a lovely peaceful farm in Ashhurst.

His female companion recently passed away and he is really missing having the company of another rabbit.
