Cat adoption

Adele from Welcome Bay

Hello,
My Dad lives in Welcome Bay and sadly had to say goodbye to his 14yr old beloved cat last month.
He is now ready to welcome a new cat into his life.
I have contacted local rescues but thought I'd post here just to see if someone needs to re-home a cat.
My Dad is 88yrs old and is looking for a 8-9yr plus, social, indoor cat that loves cuddles and enjoys curling up on his lap having a nap while he also has a nap, sunbathing on a bed or having the occasional puree kisses treat.
He has always had oriental breeds but is completely open to any short haired cat.
No kittens or cats that zoom around as although he's good for his age don't want him falling over a zooming cat and breaking anything.
Cat must be desexed and microchipped and up to date with vaccinations with proof of this.
I'm back in Tauranga, as I'm in the middle of moving, 25-26th November so we could come and meet potential new family member.
If for any reason my Dad becomes unwell and is unable to care for his new cat, it is understood that I will bring the cat into my home in Wellington to live with hubby, myself and our 5yr old female spoiled cat.

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
