Mum's cat Suzie has gone walk about from the Council flats in Arnold Gr,Paraparaumu Beach - again.
The flats back onto Kena Kena School.
She took off when the council mowers turned up yesterday morning - the cat,not Mum 🤣
She was wondering whether Suzie may have been locked in a shed or garage.
Last time Suzie disappeared,she was gone for about 6 days.
It has been put on Facebook as well.
Suzie is a black and white "big boned" cat.
She is microchipped.
Have attached a photo.
If anyone has seen her, could they please contact mum on the following numbers :

Vaccine Pass

Heather from Waikanae

My Vaccine Pass disappeared from my home page of my Android phone today. This has happened to others. I think they might have done an update or something. It is still in my Google Pay so I just had to go there and take the option of having it on my home page again.
