@Dame__Jane I have a dog that's constantly scratching, grass allergy and others. You can do a hair sensitivity test to identify "sensitivities" to food and other allergens. Not expensive didn't stop it completely but helped

Having major drama with Gabby scratching incessantly ☹️ I’ve tried everything. Oat baths. Coconut oil. Kawakawa soaks. Peppermint oil. ACV. Baking soda—etc I got so concerned I took her to the vet lest it was fleas .. or something serious. THAT was an experience - the vet instantly went to “steroids, antihistamines and a miracle cure kibble” (that they just happen to stock) 🤔 Not even 1 question asked about her diet or habits. Me, I was wondering if it could be something in the river water - cos we’re in it every day for an hour?! Or if there was some food allergy?! And oh my god how do I work THAT out? Cos in any given week she can be eating beef tongues, lamb kidneys, chicken hearts, maringa laced probiotic milk, bone broth, salmon omelette etc 😵‍💫 Finally I had this idea to put her solely on chicken as she tends to like it the most. She’s SO not food driven. Often won’t eat breakfast. (She is only just heavy enough for her age) But she just sniffs it and eats it around 3pm. I can relate. I don’t like eating first thing either. Anyway my theory was after 3 weeks if she hasn’t improved on JUST chicken I do the same with beef and so on. Went off to buy a ton of chicken yesterday - all sold out 🤦‍♀️ I grabbed a possyum roll just in case and to my surprise—she absolutely hoovered it down. Including for breakfast today!? So I’m stumped. Do I switch her to that and eliminate ALL the previous foods?! Rather than my original idea of starting with one of our exisiting meats? Anyway else some elimination diets with pets before? 🙄🤦‍♀️

@worldiswatchu Very sad, she really helped me with advice during covid

This is so incredibly sad. Ashleigh was an absolute hero and worked so hard for many people during the Con, fighting for employee rights. RIP Ashleigh 😔💔 chrislynchmedia.com/news-items/chr…

@Gus_FringCartel So sorry to hear this, terrible thing. Hard to imagine what drives this in young people - difficult thing to recover from 💔

My youngest son's best friend (19) found his 18 year old sister in the garage of his mums house last night ,she hung herself. What is it with New Zealands suicide rate? Absolutely awful. Saw him an hour ago absolutely in bits....hard to know what to say. Numb.

@bobmccoskrienz Good fully support this, it's not just a couple of days of responsible family fun unfortunately. It's months of random irresponsible behaviour by people who don't care what time or what day it is.

Banning a couple of days of responsible family fun is a bottom line?

@KiwiBiohacker @Dame__Jane You obviously don't like animals, pets and/or wildlife are traumatized by them not to mention the myriad of other issues they cause

I HATE fireworks. All those poor animals that don’t have owners with thundercoats, ear muffs, or even inside living 💔 I’d happily have my tax dollars used on public displays in every town rather than bang kapow fizz and pop happening at random, for the next 2 months. I also hate them cos I know when I worked in social services, the demand for food parcels went thru’ the roof the week fireworks went on sale. Add in fire damage (Te Mata Peak was on fire last night thanks to fireworks) and idiots killing or maiming animals—truth be told, we’ve just become too stupid to be allowed such things. Ban. The. Private. Sale. Of. Fireworks!

@NzFubar Nooo

1/ So… like a sad old man at the airport, I’m here to announce my departure. It’s been an amazing journey and one I’ll not forget. You’ve been my family for the last 5 years and have fought the good fight throughout. But there comes a time when if you’re falling out with..

@G9586450Gk @dbseymour Happy Birthday 🥳🍾🥂

Thank you @dbseymour Mr deputy Prime Minister for your lovely message, my old friend. You’re always kind and with the people, for the people. 🙏💙

@OpinionistNZ @sshole @X Welcome back

Hey. Everybody good? I'M BACK. 👋 My account got hacked a month ago. One day I was on X, next day I wasn't. When I tried to reset my password, some @sshole from another country had attached their email to MY account. Bad times. SO grateful to the Access Support Team at @X. ♥️

@G9586450Gk 💔

Goodbye my baby 🤍😔 12 years of love 🖤

Thanks for everyone who’s following, sadly because of this new account I’m limited on numbers of posts or following function. I literally couldn’t reply or post or follow back till this morning. I think I’m allowed a few a day. I appreciate all your messages 💙✌🏻

@NzFubar 💔💔

Goodnight my beautiful boy 😢 go well xx

@saltyreigns Looks good

Ok - so here’s my first crack at an Airbnb setup. Come at me with your crits but I think this looks pretty bougy for a first attempt. No chocolate because.. well it’s been well documented why there is no chocolate

@WPRTRADIO Where can you buy it?

@notmyname78 No shortage unfortunately

Found one

Something for the farmers to discuss over smoko... methane satellite can't find any significant methane emissions from NZ agriculture centrist.nz/satellites-rev…

@OldmateHulm @Charleton_Hone @shouldveknown11 True, you adjust to anything too

@shonasmail @Charleton_Hone @shouldveknown11 Cold is relative….after 10yrs in Canada, cold has a new meaning. NZ won’t be cold for me.

My friend who currently lives in Australia has just sold her investment property in Nz. She said if she buys a new investment property in Australia she will have capital gains tax & stamp duty. Things we don't have in New Zealand. She also pays over $1000 a year for her car rego. Not everything is just so golden in Australia 😬.

@Charleton_Hone @OldmateHulm @shouldveknown11 Cold

@OldmateHulm @shouldveknown11 Lovely spot but….

@saltyreigns Mine does the same

My dog - who will only eat the most expensive dog biscuits is currently licking the carpet. 🙄

@NiallHarbison RIP Alba - so sad 💔💔

I’m very sorry to say that after seeing her 14th sunrise Alba left this world today. I think we managed to give her the send off she deserved. She was a very special little girl 💜 (1/8) 🧵
