Kittens for adoption
I am currently fostering two female kittens that were dumped, they are being desexed and microchipped in a few days and will then be looking for a new home. They are approx 3 months old, very friendly and cuddly and will either be suited to a home together or separately but with the company of other animals/people who are home often due to their young age. They are used to my young children, have not yet been exposed to other animals but will adapt very quickly.
While there is no cost for their adoption the new owner will need to be able to pay for their vaccinations and if renting provide proof from the landlord of being allowed pets at the property.
Please get in touch to organise a time to meet them and talk things over with me if interested. Located in Hamilton.
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.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

S Steel Stovetop Cleaning
I am desperate to find someone who is experienced in cleaning a stainless steel stove top.The worst one was when I was making soup(about one and a half hours) and I was using a simmer mat. I have found that if I am using the burner for even an hour I get this pale brown "bloom" which is almost impossible to remove. The pics show that I have got some off but that is using steelo and I can't get around the burner. Please, only give me something that does work, so I don't wreck the thing totally. I can't take my pans off half way through cooking and wipe around, it would be too hot. I'm desperate.
The latest on city finances
Hamilton’s projected deficit has worsened, while development is on a “downward trajectory” not seen since the Global Financial Crisis.
Those findings were in a report to Tuesday’s finance and monitoring committee hui, as the cash-strapped council battles a range of issues and is consulting on a 19.9% rates rise for 2024-25.
