SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Nelly
"Hey there, I'm Nelly. I am a very beautiful girl, and I know it. I can be a bit shy in new situations and when meeting new people, but it doesn't take long for me to warm up to my humans. I love getting love and affection from my humans, it makes me feel really happy. I would like to go to a quiet home where there may be a comfy couch for me to sleep on, and maybe even a lap that I can curl up on and keep you warm on a cold night. Due to my shyness, I won't be much fun in a home with young children as I like to live a peaceful life, older children may be okay, as long as they know when to give me some time and space to myself if I need it. I don't enjoy being in a room with other cats....I do have a medical waiver my new family will need to be made aware of."
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
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?

Turning Streets into Stories
We are the Aro Valley Collective, a non- profit working to bring Art Murals to the Valley. We have a PledgeMe page up for the latest Art Mural and we are nearly at 75% of our goal. With 8 days to go we need some more support from Donors so we're reaching out to all lovers of Art, storytelling, nature and basically life!! The PledgeMe page has a video where the Artist Isobel Te Aho-White shares her vision for a stunning Mural that will encompass the St Vinnies Op Shop building, corner of Honiana Te Puni & Aro Streets. Please click through the PledgeMe link (below) to see the Video and if you wish to donate via another method, please get in touch. There's also a raffle that every donor goes into, a signed Rei Hamon print pictured below. Donated by David White, framed by Ron Barber. Our sponsors for materials: Resene and Bunnings. Many thanks Neighbours!
