There's a poster up on Sylvester (near the Police Station) for a missing cat called Murphey - quite young one. Mostly white with brown markings on the face. Apparently it's very friendly and wants its tummy rubbed (don't we all). Could this be the one in your garden? If so the "missing" poster is on Sylvester.


What is it with the cats in ED? Can't they just stay home?

Hi,

I'm Murphy's mum, and he still hasn't come back yet (obviously can't read the posters!), he's mostly black with a white belly and legs, not quite a year old but quite a big lad so might look older, he went missing on Thursday night from Pellatt road, and he's not the brightest so might well have a problem getting home! I'll try and attach a photo so you can check, here's hoping it's him! He doesn't have a collar but he is microchipped, not sure how effective this is though.

I think microchips are vital for cats in ED - much more important than collars really. One of our cats was returned from his wanderings three times entirely because of his chip. The first time he had travelled over half a mile - a long way in such a densely-built area: the last time we had a phone call even before he was actually missing(!)


Hope he is soon home anyway!

Hello - I saw a cat who maybe looked like murphy on sunday morning in our garden on silvester rd - quite small, lots of chat? I was trying to get my cat monty in and the other cat wanted to come too....so sorry have not seen him since though...
the chat bit sounds right, he's always giving a running commentary, always thought he was on the large side though, at least compared with his brother. Think he's been scared off his patch by a monstrous tabby who keeps coming round of an evening, cat equivalent of a pit bull, scared the bejesus out of him indoors! If you see him again toss him a scrap of food and chuck him in the right direction, we're on the lower block of pellatt/silvester closest to lordship lane, thanks
Another lost cat? This one arrived Fri night and is currently miaowing on my doorstep. She's a grey tabby and was very hungry when she arrived. I keep feeding her just so she'll be OK. Please contact if she's yours or you know who might own her (not everyone has access to the Forum).
yes the same cat ash been outside our window since friday night and seems bit lost. we live on crystal palace road, its a grey tabby cat, small, young, with no collar, i have asked her where she lives but as yet have not had a clear answer, is this is your cat, please get in touch.. she meows very loudly!!!
Thanks, Asset (you've chosen your name well); actually, that's my next-door-neighbour's message (he clearly sees the cat as brown, I think she's more grey!). She's inveigled her way in there as well - probably because I was trying to be tough and not let her in my place again, as she upset my own cat yesterday and he was then upset with me... But at least she's got lots of people trying to help her - another neighbour passed on some meat for her, too.

cats dont get lost, they merely look for better offers elsewhere


drive it off with a blast from a hose and let it prostitute is alleged feline charms to some other victim


dont feed it, or you may be lumbered with the vicious bird killing machine for life.or until it decides to move on elsewhere

    • 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).
