Do you want my feline company during lock down?

Sue from Newtown

Hi, my name is Shoga and I’m a 4 yr old calico speyed female. Now here’s the rub. My bipeds went and brought in a new rescue dog a few months ago and I just cannot abide him.

Now here’s the rub. My bipeds went and brought in a new rescue dog a few months ago and I just cannot abide him. I tend to stay a lot in the bedroom and one of the bipeds has an allergy. The allergy is OK when I spread myself around but not when I chill out in the bedroom so much. I just cannot seem to change even though they have cajoled and kept me out of the bedroom, I just wanna get away from that dog!
So, here I go, it’s time for me to sack the bipeds and find someone else. Here is my ideal candidate/s
• You don’t have any other pets in your home cause I just don’t like the competition
• If you have children they are like 10 plus as I’ll be quite afraid of smaller children

• You will spend the time getting to know me as I’ll be nervous for a bit until I get to know you and your home. You better like me in your bedroom cause I do like spending time with you there. When you know me I am playful, cuddly and quirky• On the plus side, my bipeds have 6 weeks of high quality food for me and a whole bunch of bedding, toys and stuff like that.
What do you do? Contact my bipeds via Neighbourly

Staying positive during the coronavirus lockdown and everything cancelled

Like most businesses in New Zealand we’ve shut our studio for the countrywide Coronavirus lockdown. We’re all reeling a bit, like you probably are, not quite sure what the future will look like.

We’re all reeling a bit, like you probably are, not quite sure what the future will look like. We have faith in our country and our people though so we’re confident we’ll all rally and get through this. We’re good at being strong together when it counts, let's keep that going.

That of course means all our March and April events are cancelled. If you had tickets booked to any of our events, or a private booking, you’ll be able to reschedule to any future events or another date that suits, once everything gets back to normal. We’ll be in touch with all of you as soon as we can. Gift vouchers will still be available throughout the lockdown.

We’re also committed to sharing lots of uplifting, inspirational content with you to keep you smiling during your lockdown.

As an event based business, we’re really grateful for your continued support during this crazy time. Your support will help us get through this and hopefully help our business survive.

Keep physically and mentally healthy everyone. We look forward to painting with you soon.

Regards and blessings
