    Hi, Have you been letting her out the front door onto the street or would this be a first & therefore unfamiliar with the area? Does she respond to a name & is she spayed & microchipped? Our team carry scanners on our daily routes & will of course be looking out for her. I hope you are reunited with her soon. If not already, notify your street & surrounding streets (find out if they have Whatsapp groups) Dox will print & deliver free missing posters https://www.doxdirect.com/help/free-missing-pet-posters/ Call her at dusk & dawn when street & foot traffic is at its lowest.

    Hello, Does this lovely little panther have a name? & Is he neutered & microchipped?

    You might want to try the Peckham Facebook community group. I am located in East Dulwich & have 2 well-used scratchers: A large single post (ideal for an adult cat) & a small cat tree with 2 short posts (ideal for kittens) While the wear & tear is nowhere near as bad as the one shown in the link below, ideally the sisal should be replaced to get the best use out of it (& neutralise the scent of another cat) hence why I haven't donated these to a shelter. You may find this link helpful: https://thegreenmadhouse.com/diy/how-to-repair-your-cat-scratcher But you can just get a brand new one between £10-£30 on Amazon that'll last much longer. It all depends on what type of scratcher you're looking for; material, size, vertical or horizontal. Your little lion will let you know by whether they're currently scratching down or up, like a mat or armchair for example. More than happy to send location & leave in front garden for pickup.

    Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/ In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.

    Hi, Is Linda spayed & microchipped? & was she let out into the road or garden? Our team carry scanners on our daily routes, so will keep an eye out for her.

    Hi, Have you tried reaching out to breed-specific rescue groups or shelters? Sadly, Cavapoos are one of the most exploited breeds in the UK due to their popularity, so due diligence is crucial. Cavapoos do occasionally pop up for adoption, especially puppies. TWB x

    Please contact The Stray Cat Club, Cats Protection or Celia Hammond Animal Trust to arrange for a TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return or Rehome if possible)

    You keep insisting that you're "just stating facts", but so far, most of what you've shared isn't fact - it's just your personal opinion, framed with hostility. Foxes aren't classified as "vermin" in the UK. They're wild animals protected under the Animal Welfare Act & the Wildlife & Countryside Act . & Yes, they do play a vital role in controlling rodent population. The more you double down on insults & misinformation, the more you discredit your own argument. It's possible to be fed up & still informed. Take the information provided to you & do something about it. BTW culling doesn't even work.
  10. TWB Cat Sitter
    I understand that dealing with mess in your garden is frustrating, but calling for culling & branding those who care as "idiotic" isn't just unhelpful, it's dangerously reductive. Urban foxes exist because we've steadily removed their natural habitat. They adapt, survive & yes sometimes that means scavenging in places we'd rather they didn't. But labeling them a "pest" overlooks the bigger picture, which is that they are part of our urban ecosystem & play a vital role in controlling rodent population. As someone above so accurately pointed out, dogs leave more waste on footpaths. A fox is a canine, just like dogs. So are you calling for the culling of pets too?
  11. TWB Cat Sitter
    Respectfully, the Fox Angels Foundation need all the volunteers they have to tend to emergency call-outs, & should not be used as a fox deterrent service unless the fox is in danger. Forward all fox deterrent concerns to Fox-A-Gon so not to overwhelm these rescues.
  12. TWB Cat Sitter
    As wonderful as The Fox Project is, contacting them should be limited to emergency cases only. Specially at the moment, as they need all the help they can get to support foxes sustaining life-threatening injuries. Contact Fox-A-Gon for non-lethal fox control: https://fox-a-gon.co.uk/

    Local shops will have endless supply of boxes to dispose of.

    The Stray Cat Club is in urgent need of local volunteers & foster homes across East Dulwich & surrounding areas. With rescue pleas coming in daily, the demand is rising - especially for vulnerable kittens, abandoned pets & overlooked strays in need of safety, warmth & care. Whether you can offer: - A safe, temporary home (even short-term or kitten-specific) - Transport help (vet runs, collections, drop-offs) - Admin support, fundraising or social media help - Raising Awareness through educating the general public. ... you can make a real difference. Fostering is fully supported - all food, litter & veterinary care is provided. You don't need a garden, just a quiet space, a kind heart & commitment. Every safe space created means another cat pulled from danger. If you've been waiting for a sign - this is it! Please reach out via The Stray Cat Club official website https://straycatclub.org.uk/ & follow on Instagram @thestraycatclub (https://www.instagram.com/thestraycatclub/) & Please, please continue to spread the importance of spaying, neutering & microchipping your cats. Thank you.

    Hi Emily, Our team carry scanners, & I am just on the next road to you. If by tomorrow you haven't located the owner & would like for me to check for a microchip, I will be around tomorrow AM & noon. I can also be contacted at [email protected] x

    It may be worth consulting your vet. If she's diabetic & on medication, she will have missed 1-2 doses. It's a relief to hear that she's home, & I hope she makes a speedy recovery.
  17. TWB Cat Sitter
    How terrible for the cyclist. I can only imagine how shaken up she is by this event. I hope she makes a speedy recovery, physically, mentally & emotionally. The vehicle's registration number should be easy to extract, as the area is laced with CCTV cameras. I hope they are caught.

    I'm not sure why but this file has caused my laptop to crash multiple times, even after reset (& I have a very good laptop), so just a little warning for viewers. Perhaps try uploading an image, as I'm still unable to view this. My team & I carry scanners, so if your cat is microchipped, we will do our best to reunite him with you.
  19. TWB Cat Sitter
    The North Cross Road end. We're on Hindmans Rd. The swifts are here from dawn till dusk, with the bats making an appearance at roughly 10pm.

    Hi Rosie. I'm so sorry to hear that your little lion has not returned home. How long has Rafferty been missing? Is he neutered & microchipped? Our team carry scanners & will keep an eye out for him on our travels. I hope you are reunited with him sooner.
  21. TWB Cat Sitter
    The swifts & bats are alive & well around Upland Road. A beautiful sight & sound in the evenings. Just be sure to leave plenty of water out for them, as they are at high risk of dehydration & struggle to take flight at ground level.

    Hi Claire! Is Immy microchipped? Our team carry scanners & will be on the lookout for her on our daily travels. I hope you are reunited with her soon.
  23. TWB Cat Sitter
    It sounds like both cats have chosen to flee & seek temporary refuge rather than risk another confrontation with this dominant cat. Find out whether or not the cat has an owner & if he is neutered. If the cat is fixed, unchipped & no owner comes forward to claim him, you can contact Celia Hammond, Cats Protection or Stray Cat Club to arrange a TNR. This would remove the current threat & give these cats an opportunity to return home safely if they are close by. Our team carry scanners as part of a voluntary initiative to help reunite missing cats with their owners. We'll be keeping a look out for Gladys & Doris on our daily travels. I hope your friend is reunited with them soon.

    Good Evening Jld, If you haven't already, please try reposting this to your street's Whatsapp group & Facebook's community groups. I would offer to pop round & scan for a microchip as I'm very close by, but as you say, this cat is not easy to get close to & feeding to coax them any closer would be risky given the symptoms you've described. Unfortunately, our team do not recognise this cat.
