Four furbabies update.

Frances from Silverstream

Last week we sent out a request to help cover some of the costs associated with the dental requirements of 4 specific furbabies; Fabian, Josie, Minka, and Magpie.
Just wanted to let everyone know that all of the cats have received their dentals. To date we have raised $920 which is almost half of the amount required and that is amazing! So a huge thanks to everyone who has donated so generously.
However we still do need help to cover those dental bills so if you can, please donate at givealittle.co.nz...
for this specific cause. (Every dollar helps.)
Also we have more exciting news, two of the cats have been rehomed. Fabian and Josie now have permanent furever homes so thank you so much for that as well.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
