Phantom needs a new home
Due to a change in Phantom's owner's living situation this adorable kitty needs a new home.
She doesn’t like small tamariki and is cuddly but prefers older people. She doesn’t seem to like other cats.
She is sweet and a little timid and doesn’t like sudden movements and loud noises. She loves being outside and follows you everywhere. She loves affection and pets from trusted people and lovesss to sleep on nice blankets.
Please email us at whangareicatrescue@gmail.com if you are interested in providing a new home for Phantom and we will put you in touch with her current owner.

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)
