SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Ben and Bill

Reporter Community News

"We were part of a group of guinea pigs that our family could no longer care for, so now we are looking for a new home together.
We are still getting used to being with people, so don't like to be picked up. Our confidence is slowly improving. We are very cute and great to watch. We will need a large grass area with a weatherproof hutch for day time. We need to come inside at night to spend time with our family, and to help us keep safe from the weather and other animals."

If we sound like the kind of new family member you have been looking for, please get in touch. Remember if you want your pet featured on Neighbourly, email us on yourpet@dompost.co.nz with a recent photo. Please remember to say which suburb you live in.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
