Singalto, the cat we found was a small tabby. I saw your earlier message and will contact 101 when I get home. It's reassuring to know that the police now have a unit dedicated to the problem. Great idea about the leaflets - please let me know if you need any help distributing them.

On my way to work on Friday morning I saw a cat in my neighbour's front garden in Silvester Road. It looked like the poor thing was bearing the same injuries as you described singalto. I reported it to the RSCPA and an officer was sent over within a couple of hours. What a horrible thing for the owner to wake up to. I really hope they catch this person soon - absolutely horrific!

It's so strange that they took your umbrella. Amongst other things, they stole my partner's glasses (very annoying!) and a Solvenia fridge magnet - so odd!

After our break in, we noticed abandoned plastic bags at the bottom of the stairs. It seems the thieves were only looking for smaller items. We had a brand new bike in the hallway which was completely untouched! With this in mind, I would assume that they were on foot.

I think the call out to the burglary on Silvester Road was us :( the police suspect it was two men, so may well be the same people!

Hi all, The ground floor flat we live in and also the flat above us have been broken into today. We live close to where the police station used to be too and the whole thing happened around midday when we went out to get our Christmas tree! It seems the burglary was also carried out by two people and the police have found glove marks in both flats. Sorry to hear that it's been happening quite frequently recently in East Dulwich - it's a really horrible thing to go through.

We just took our cat to the neighbourhood vets for the first time since moving to the area - can't recommend them enough! The vet was so knowledgable and gave excellent advice! They're also open until 8 on certain days of the week which is a bonus.
