The staff from Block 9, Level C, have some bittersweet news to share — we’ve decided it’s time to re-home our beloved campus cat, Pocket.

Pocket’s now an elderly cat and was recently diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism. We have decided that the best thing for Pocket now is for her to move to a quiet, loving home, where she can receive extra attention and care. You can read the full explanation behind this decision on the Te Tira Ahu Pae website (link in bio)

We have put together a Give A Little page for students and staff to donate to, if they wish to contribute to Pocket’s ongoing care (link in our bio to donate).

Disclaimer — this fundraiser has been created and managed in a personal capacity by the staff from Level C, and is not associated or managed in any official capacity by Massey University or Te Tira Ahu Pae.

His staff asked him to resign, but Will Irvine remains editor. Four staff have quit since April. After 87 years in production, his boss doesn’t know if the magazine will survive the year.

Having approached people involved with the magazine this year, Massive spoke to six people separately, on the condition of anonymity.

All told a similar story — that Irvine had been asked to resign over email, and VUWSA management had not done enough to help them.
