SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Sophie

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Our Pet of the Day this week is Sophie.

Our Pet of the Day this week is Sophie.

"I have a bit of history here at the SPCA. I originally came in as a shy kitten in 2015. I was adopted and this is what my foster family said about me. "Sophie was shy and hid a lot when she first came home with me. I put some food by her hiding spot and a little trail towards me and she came out and was affectionate. Until she feels safe she will hide. Sophie still - three months later - hides when other people come to the house, but is brave and affectionate with me. Sophie isn't really interested in toys and prefers to sleep in the sun or hang out with me. She will either snuggle into my leg on the sofa or on my lap. When she wants attention she will pat me with her paw. In the evening I would cradle her like a baby and sing to her and rub her belly, she loved it."

Wellington penguin colony loses 82 chicks to starvation

Thirty-five per cent of little blue penguins born on the Matiu/Somes Island have died of starvation after an otherwise successful breeding season.

Thirty-five per cent of little blue penguins born on the Matiu/Somes Island have died of starvation after an otherwise successful breeding season.
During a fortnightly survey of the colony in mid-November, the Wellington Harbour Penguin Study team discovered 66 dead chicks – 54 of them in one day.
Their death has been attributed to silt and the water temperature in the harbour, which resulted in a lack of fish.

Habaneros for sale (like chillies but much hotter)

Hi everyone,
My little 12 year-old sister and I have some more freshly-picked, pesticide-free habaneros off our bush that we would like to sell to earn some pocket money.

Hi everyone,
My little 12 year-old sister and I have some more freshly-picked, pesticide-free habaneros off our bush that we would like to sell to earn some pocket money.

The $1 coin is for size reference, these habaneros are much bigger than chillies I have seen at the local supermarket retailing for $1:30 each (picture included indicating size relative to a $1 coin) and are really hot so you only need to cut up a small portion into food. Habaneros store well in the freezer so any leftover can be frozen until needed for up to a few months.

$1 each or 6 for $5.

I also have some that I have frozen that we would still like to sell at a rate of 2 for $1.50.

Covid-19 safety precautions:
It is recommended that you rinse produce thoroughly with hot water.
See covid19.govt.nz....
