Hi,


Our cat Gizmo (picture attached) has been missing for around 4-5 days. He is well known around Townley Road and often hangs about on the pavement outside Alleyns School and at The Townley Road Clinic.

His roaming area is quite large including Dovercourt Road and Beauval Road.

Please can you keep an eye out for him and contact us if you have seen him in the last 4 or 5 days.


Many thanks,

Holly and Jim (07879 440 749)

Our own ginger cat has been going into 5 Beauval Road recently as this house is unoccupied and building works are taking place there. The builders seem to have all the doors and windows open when they are there. Could Gizmo be trapped inside? I haven't noticed the builders working there for some days now and the house seems to be shut up. Worth your checking? I do hope you soon find Gizmo who we know well. He is a lovely friendly cat.

Any luck finding Gizmo? My partner and I where walking home last Saturday (23rd) after having dinner in East Dul at around 11pm and we saw a young lad (18/20ish) cross the Main road from Towney Clinic side with a Ginger cat in his arms. We thought it seemed a bit suspicious but he was acting as if it was his own cat. He was with 2 other guys. We have tried to retrace our steps to remember which road it was they went down, we think it was Pellat or Whatley Rod but cannot be certain. We aren't sure if it was Gizmo as couldn't see the white underside but could see it was a ginger cat.


Sorry and we hope to hear good news that you are reunited soon.

On Saturday afternoon when I was out a man knocked on our door and asked my husband if we had lost a gingr cat as he had found one in his garden on Lordship Lane. He thought it may have been attacked by a fox. My husband gave him the mobile number of Gizmo's owners in case it was Gizmo. Was it?

Hello all. Good news Gizmo was found over the weekend.

Thanks to those that helped that chap find our mobile number.

He had injured both his back legs, possibly a fox or another cat or barbed wire so he couldn't get home. He has an infection but should hopefully be fine after a week at home and some antibiotics.

So pleased to read that Gizmo is home and that he should recover from his ordeal. It's great that the cat the man from Lordship Lane had found was indeed Gizmo. My husband said the man from Lordship Lane was apparently going around the area knocking on everyone's doors to try and find the cat's owner. What a lovely person.

    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand).
