Kiwis deserve better, which is why we’re fighting for power affordability for all of us. But we can’t do it alone.

Join us in the Revolt to bring power prices down, by signing the petition to demand that the Government reforms NZ’s broken electricity market. #Powergate ✊🏾 ✊🏿 ✊🏼 ✊🏽

We look forward to celebrating with families and staff past and present.

Greeting's Everybody,
I have posted everywhere on Facebook. Checking SPCA and other sites nearly everyday. Sent pamphlets around Miramar neighbourhood but no luck since April. My big black cat (Puss or Patronus) has been missing since the 26th of April.
He is an entire adult male
Desexed
Aged around 5-6
Black
Not microchipped
Had a collar which was light blue with a bell (but he tends to lose them)
He has had dental work with 5 teeth out. One obvious is his front canine tooth that is missing.
He was our precious boy, very independent, very cuddly. Doesn't really meow just chirps really cutely.
Please text me if you have recognised a new big black cat addition to your neighbourhood around Miramar or near. We hope to one day find him and bring him back home.
