SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Ella
Sorry, I did not post my usual SPCA Pet of the Day on Sunday but this week it is something different, a white rabbit.
"I was roaming on a property which also had dogs on it, so for my own safety, I was brought to SPCA.
I have a strong character and will need a home with someone who is experienced with rabbits. Once I know I am loved, I calm down but at first I do come across as reactive. I would love to have a friend, I haven't met one here at SPCA, so if you have a lonely male rabbit, maybe we could be friends?
I wouldn't suit young children or a busy home as I get worried by sudden movements and loud noises. I will need a large grassy area with a weather-proof hutch for day time. At night I will need an area inside with my family."
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
