Has anyone seen out cat, Audrey?


She goes out everyday, but normally doesn't go far from home and never misses a meal. We haven't seen her since the morning of 11/7/7 and we're getting worried. She tends to stick to the Crystal Palace Road / Landells Road / Goodrich Road area. She's half Siamese, so very small and slight, but jet black all over with green eyes (picture below). She wears a red collar with her name and our phone number on. She's very curious and playful and sometimes finds her way into other peoples' houses.


Please look out for her and ring us if you see her.

Thanks

PS: I know Anna has put this thread up somewhere else but the more people who see it, the better. Hope that isn't breaking EDF rules.

There was a cat lurking at the top of CPR the other day, near the caff, corner of LL. It looked like the photo but I'm sure didn't have a collar. Just before you get to the caff there is a "track" on the left leading down to the back of the houses, it was meandering down there...


Hope that helps...


best of luck

hey guys (I use to work with both of you!!) I saw an Audrey like cat outside mine on Friern road an hr ago (but again without a collar - and have seen the same cat here before though), just looked outside and couldn't see it (did make daft noises to try and attract it too!) will keep my eyes peeled xx
Cheers Jim - unfortunately, there are quite a few black cats around this neck of the woods (we've got one more and our neighbours have 2 big black furry cats!) but Audrey is easily spotted by the fact that she is absolutely tiny, almost kitten sized. Thanks for keeping eyes peeled everyone. been a couple of days now so starting to get worrying...

Just to say thanks to everyone who kept their eyes open for our moggy - just when we'd started to accept the worst, she strolled in through the cat flap looking very pleased with herself and her 3 days of adventuring in ED... but then, of course, she is a fairly recent "incomer" so needs to explore ;-)


Again, many thanks (tu)

At home with her brother. No more silly cat pics, I promise.

I note the Animal Rights website - given ED prediliction for good meat at William Rose and good fish at Moxton's and great cheese at the Cheese Block you may be on the wrong track.


Animals can have no rights - with rights come responsbilities and I have yet to meet an animal that is able to understand or debate this concept. I'm kind to animals but would not keep a pet as it's not right, in my mind, to coop up dogs / cats in London (tho' I harbour murderous thoughts about the cat that uses my garden as a latrine. However, I'm not willing to forego a nice lamb shank, slow cooked belly of pork or aged steak cooked rare.

I can't speak for dogs, as I don't have one but as for keeping cats cooped up my cat is free to go wherever she likes and its her choice to stay in her own garden, she is a very happy cat - even though she lives in London (It's difficult to kep cats cooped up anyway - they will do their own thing!). And she fulfils her responsibilities, (despite, like many humans, not being able to debate the concept,) as a pet very well - she is cute, furry, funny and friendly - what more could be asked!

MM - We got Audrey & Clark from a shelter where they'd been handed in by previous owners who got divorced. They were living in a box a foot or 2 in each direction. During the hours of daylight they are now free to go wherever they want, which doesn't usually involve leaving a one-block-radius, and normally spend most of the days when I'm off sitting on the window ledge of my study. We are a bit possessive about keeping them in at night because the foxes round here are massive and bold as brass and our cats are tiny but think they're invincible - a recipe for their messy death (cats, not foxes...)


I am also verging on being a puritan carnivore. I think these 2 lifestyle choices are ok to combine.


We do realise that having pets is a fundementally selfish act because it's about how nice it is for the owner to have the pet, but ours don't appear to be too tortured.


Anyway, this thread was first a missing report, then a thank you. Sorry it's caused a stir.

Not a stir - I just like to tease vegans! Probaly counts as a blood sport.

No she doesn't earn enough to pay taxes and is too precious to put her bottom in anyone else's garden - insists on her own litter tray - more's the pity

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
