Missing Cat - please help us bring Olive home
Hi Neighbours - our 3 year old cat called Olive has now been missing for 24 hours. She is very friendly, answers to her name and is likely stuck inside a garage our outbuilding she has snuck into. She is our precious fur baby and we would really appreciate if you could check your garages and sheds to see if she is stuck inside. Thank you for your help in looking for her. Our address is 158A Kahu Road, Paremata and my mobile number is 0272293862. She is microchipped and has a red disc collar on with her name and our phone number. We are offering a $250 reward to bring her home. Thank you! Monica

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
