FOUND - **R.I.P** Has anyone lost a ginger tabby kitten Waihi Road, Tauranga area?

Rochelle from Bethlehem

At 9.15am today I saw a ginger tabby kitten hit by a car in front of 275 Waihi Road, Tauranga. Unfortunately, it has passed. I have knocked on at least 20 surrounding properties to locate the owner. I have taken the kitten to Tauranga Vets, Cameron Road, Tauranga to see if it was microchipped. It is not. The kitten is approx 10 weeks old and is a male. No collar. They will keep the kitten there for 2 weeks until I hopefully can locate the owner. I am desperate to find the owner. I am a cat lover and owner and I lovingly cared for this beautiful kitten after it had passed.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
