LOCKDOWN FOR PET'S, PLEASE READ & SHARE!

Duane from Porirua City Centre

Please everyone, just a reminder, we are already aware that most animals are creatures of habit, having us around 24/7 is very confusing for our furry friends, please keep this in mind.

If your cat has taken a lil longer to come home or not even going outside or acting not there usual, remember this.

Imagine if we ran our lives by the routine of things that went on around us then suddenly something went wrong & that time clock is no longer reliable anymore with out reason or warning.. Alot of cats know to be home for dinner as there owners cars pull up from work every day... Or breakfast is served when they get up for work first thing in the morning.. Or to start heading home once Joe bloggs at so n sos building get in there car to leave at the end of the day...

Please try & keep your pets routines as normal as possible during lockdown. We all know what's going on & why but our pets don't & their routines have been so messed up suddenly that they will be feeling rather lost & confused as what's what & when now their routines have suddenly stopped working.

Make the effort to still get up to feed them when normally would in the mornings, keep eye on time for the dinner feeds as usual. If you usually let your cat out to play outside at a certain time of the day keep doing so for them!

Alot of cats go missing during this time as they are feeling so lost. Please understand this & do your best to help their lives stay as normal as possible. :)

P. S also, alot of previously lost cats will have there new established routines they have to keep themself fed adapting to new enviroments will no longer be able to rely on that rubbish bin of food scraps outside a nearby restaurant or the playground at the local schools playlunch droppings they had come to rely on also has suddenly stopped for them. These cats may start turning up in people's backyards during this lockdown, please don't just ignore them.. They will be asking for your help..

Contact your local animal rescue team or myself on any of the contacts I've provided below & I will come out with full respect to the level 4 rules & chip scan / help these cats.

Thankyou. :)

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
