Black Cat Missing since 26th April 2020
Greeting's Everybody,
I have posted everywhere on Facebook. Checking SPCA and other sites nearly everyday. Sent pamphlets around Miramar neighbourhood but no luck since April. My big black cat (Puss or Patronus) has been missing since the 26th of April.
He is an entire adult male
Desexed
Aged around 5-6
Black
Not microchipped
Had a collar which was light blue with a bell (but he tends to lose them)
He has had dental work with 5 teeth out. One obvious is his front canine tooth that is missing.
He was our precious boy, very independent, very cuddly. Doesn't really meow just chirps really cutely.
Please text me if you have recognised a new big black cat addition to your neighbourhood around Miramar or near. We hope to one day find him and bring him back home.

Summer on the South Coast
Summer is here again! Fantastic weather beckoning all to get out and enjoy it.
So my request is, if you are cycling, running, walking on our beautiful south coast roads between Breaker Bay and Ohwiro Bay - please be courteous to all road users, even those of us stuck in cars.
The roads are scenic, but they are also narrow, with lots of blind corners. This makes it very difficult for faster moving traffic (cars) to pass slower moving traffic (cycles, walkers, runners). On a bad day this can result in frustrated cars making rash decisions to overtake - putting everyone in danger.
If you are enjoying the coast road on a cycle, and there are cars behind you, please do be considerate and pull over when you have a chance so that they can pass. "Hugging the left" does not really help on a narrow road with blindspots. Stopping is ideal.
If you are enjoying coast on foot, please be conscious of visibility and stay off the road where possible.
If you are enjoying the coast in a car, please be courteous to others - good will spreads, unfortunately so does selfishness.
Lastly - everyone watch out for penguins, they were here first but they don't read Neighbourly or road signs.
Happy and Safe summer everyone.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
