Cat items for rescues update!
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 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!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
