Foster Homes Urgently Needed for Neglected and Rescued Kittens or Cats

Paulette from Orewa

I am a Foster Mum through Catsncare, a very professional and very respected rescue organisation, and for five years I truly have had the most amazing experiences fostering homeless kittens and cats. Catsncare have the kindest team of volunteers and they work tirelessly to raise funds mainly through their Charity Shop in Silverdale so every undervalued kitten or cat is given a second chance of happiness. . Helen and Allen started Catsnincare in 2011 to give a second chance and a forever home for abused kittens and cats(some profoundly) but with lots of cuddles and playtime all my kittens have learnt we aren't all cruel and have gone on to beautiful home. I keep in touch with many of the adoptive families and love receiving updates and photos. Its not actually very hard to turn these sweet animals from scared to trust. There is no expense to the Foster Family unless you wish to contribute to food but it is not expected. Foster carers are supported and provided with everything including all Vet costs for Desexing, Microchipping, Defleeing and deworming, and toys to show its safe to trust and play.Just attending the appointments is all that is needed. At 12 weeks your beautiful kitten/s or Cat is ready for adoption Catsncare have a very popular website followed by caring families waiting for second chance kittens or for older families who want older cats for companionship. I am so grateful to Catsncare for the opportunity to foster and I would gladly help anyone who wants to know if they could too. . My cellphone is 0211677452 to query anything about fostering for Catsncare or for direct contact to register please phone 0272282273 which is manned all hours. Catsncare Volunteer Paulette

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
