Christmas with Grandad

Colleen Hawkes Reporter from Homed

It's that time of year - we all get a little nostalgic for Christmas' past. My grandad wasn't exactly the Grinch Who Stole Christmas, but he sure wanted it over and done with. Would love to hear your reminisces.

"This is Sam, our nine weeks old, rescue kitten now living in Waikanae.
Kittens are supposed to sleep for 18 to 20 hours a day....I think Sam needs a new clock as he never sleeps anywhere close to this and seems to spends all day running round at top speed!"

SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Tatiana

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Tatiana was a really timid girl who has really come out of her shell since finding a new home courtesy of the SPCA.
"You might be as shocked and as surprised as I am to know how well Tatiana is doing already. She's out of her box most of the time and is now running to me when I call her … View more
Tatiana was a really timid girl who has really come out of her shell since finding a new home courtesy of the SPCA.
"You might be as shocked and as surprised as I am to know how well Tatiana is doing already. She's out of her box most of the time and is now running to me when I call her for lots of headbutts and head rubs. She's very chatty and is becoming comfortable walking around, exploring the house, and sitting on the windowsills and watching the world already. I chose the right cat, she's quite a character and is actually quite a brave, young lady."

I am a first year engineering student at Victoria University. I'm planning to do a personal project to build an app that is focused on reducing the amount of clothing waste dumped in landfills by encouraging users on the app to swap or purchase quality pre-loved clothes. Research has indcated that clothing and cotton production is a major contributor to climate change. This is a personal, not-for-profit app project for me to work on my own time. I am doing a market research and I will appreciate your time to do this quick survey.

Cat items for rescues update!

Amanda from Khandallah

Update on the cat food/items drive! I have received a lot of donations from very generous people, and I have been adding to it here and there. There is a lot to sort through and I want to match the items to the rescues who said they needed particular items. It's likely I'll be getting … View moreUpdate on the cat food/items drive! I have received a lot of donations from very generous people, and I have been adding to it here and there. There is a lot to sort through and I want to match the items to the rescues who said they needed particular items. It's likely I'll be getting touch with said rescues after Christmas, but before New Year's.

I am very happy and grateful about the response it got! I will do this again next year, but start sooner to hopefully collect more and to allow more rescues/ers to participate. :)

Thank you very much and Merry Christmas!
