## Resource

Meet Chase, the furry urban explorer of Christchurch who’s turned into a local legend. With a high-vis collar sporting his Facebook page, this cat’s on a mission — napping in whisky bars, sneaking into hotels, and posing at hotspots from Mexican joints to the Bridge of Remembrance. Fans are obsessed, dropping kebabs and even posting “wanted” notices to reassure him he’s welcome to roam. His owner jokes he’s gained “fame weight” from all the love — and Chase’s adventures have brought smiles to everyone from commuters to unhoused neighbors. He’s not just a cat — he’s a walking Instagram filter with a mission to make every corner of the city a little brighter.
