Kittens needing fosterers

Kirihika from Island Bay

🐈‍⬛Looking for long term foster homes 🐈

In the last few months I've unfortunately lost many fosterers for all good reasons (foster fails 🙊) and I'm desperately in need of new foster homes, if I can't find anymkre reliable foster homes i may have to cut down on intake.

I currently have two long term foster homes (one is having renovations so will be taking a break march onwards) and about 3 short term fosterers that aren't always available.

I'm looking for people who can commit to long term fostering and people who are comfortable taking in larger litters and adult cats.

What's needed?:

♡A safe home
♡ LOVE
♡Pet friendly home
♡Commitmemt
♡Transportation
♡Live in or near the city (tawa, ngaio boundary-ish) if you are located in the hutt please contact Neko Ngeru Cat Adoption Cafe
♡Good Communication
♡ oh and love

What's ideal but not necessary?:

♡A separate room
♡Time when handling younger kits with no mum, if mums there she does all the work.
♡Funds to supply food and litter but if needed am able to reimburse, vet bills and stuff like that is covered.

It doesn't matter if you have a big family, live alone, have other pets 💖

Please PM me if this sounds like something you could be interested in or if you have any questions.

Thank you, Kirihika ( Pōneke Ngeru Rescue )

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.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

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!
