Can anyone recommend someone local to install a cat flap? Many thanks

It was slow and torturous progress at times but I Finally managed to lure holly home with food. She must have been hungry! We?re thrilled to have her back but not sure how happy she is about the new arrangement - she hid under the sofa straight away. Thanks all for the support no -

An extra pair of hands would certainly help. My wife can't help me look int he evening because she has to stay in with the children. I might take you up on the offer if I can't entice her in this week.

Good luck!

I saw her again last night in a neighbour's garden - she was mewing loudly from the bushes - but she wouldn't come close enough to take a treat let alone allow me to try to coax her home. I think I'm going to have to try a trap, or call Battersea for advice.

yes, cat posters up, vets, shelters and chip company informed. i think i saw her on our road last night. i tracked her for an hour or so in the dark, offering her treats until she came to me and let me pet her. then i tried to pick her up and carry her home so i could check in the light that it was definitely holly but it did not go down well. she scratched me so i let her go and she bolted again. so i have a problem: even if i find her, getting her to come back to my house, which she still doesn't identify as home, or to come to me, who she still doesn't fully trust, will be tough. we have been leaving cat treats and our holly's litter tray outside our home. both of which are being used, though not necessarily both by our cat!

Yes, I have done that. I left her blanket, carry case and toys, which have her scent on them, and her food bowl to try and tempt her. The food we left out was eaten by some animal, or other. I had a call from someone who saw her up by Belvoir Road, quite a walk from our end of Friern, so I drove up there and talked to some people who live around there but couldn't find her. It's like looking for a needle in haystack. She is chipped so I guess I'm relying on someone finding her and taking her to the vet too - she doesn't have a collar so I presume people might think she is a stray.

Missing tabby elderly cat from Crystal Palace road

Here she is

Hello, I have lost my cat - please help! She escaped out the front door this morning as I was taking my boy to school. Her name is Holly, she is a one year old tabby and white cat, she doesn't have a collar yet as we only just got her, and I didn't mean for her to get out of the house just yet. We have only had her for a week and I'm worried she won't return as she was still settling in. She is a quite nervous and shy cat and until this point hasn't left the house, so I'm nervous she won't come back because she isn't yet familiar with the surrounding area. Please get in touch if you see her. I live on Friern Road, the Peckham Rye end, and my number is 07966464379. I have two children who are devastated and desperate to get their new feline friend home. Please get in touch if you see her. Many thanks, Dan

I'm bitterly disappointed to hear about this. The pizza for me, is better than Franco Manca, which I find a bit too sloppy and undercooked. The bases at Sorsi and Morsi we're thin and crispy - just how traditional Italian pizza should be. I think it's as much a problem with the restaurant site itself, which is dominated by an overly large bar and feels more like a canteen than somewhere inviting you want to sit for any length of time. A big shame, I ate there or collected from them most weekends last summer but it was rarely full, I figured it would be curtains for them when Franco Manca came to town. As far as Franco Manca is concerned it's a meh from me so far. I've been twice to this particular branch of the chain. First time queued 25 minutes then had people lining up over my table, while they waited, not exactly the ideal setting for a meal. Then the pizza took ages and was thoroughly underdone. Not a patch on what I've had in Brixton. Perhaps they'll improve over time but the last time I went with my 8 month pregnant wife we walked after being told it was over a 20 minute wait and there being nowhere for her to sit while we wait. The guys ahead of us who were clearly irritated at how long they had been waiting weren't in the mood to let us go before them. I personally can't be arsed to queue up to 30 minutes for below par pizza with no bar area to sit and have drink while waiting. RIP Sorsi and Morsi
