I know this is just nature being red in tooth and claw, but my neighbour's cat has bloody gone and terrorised a starling baby bird. Scores of starlings are now screeching about my house. It's unnecessary for a cat to kill for pleasure. Please let your cat wear a bell to try to stop this kind of thing happening. Not sure if the little thing is dazed or bitten and therefore probably infected with deadly bacteria. It's the last thing I need. Nero

Cats should wear bells in order to allow my sound-guided chaingun garden accessory to turn them into a pretty Jackson Pollock of red and pink textured smears.


Huguenot,


in a bid to save the cats of east Dulwich from your felicidic tendencies I implore you to take out your artistic frustrations here instead. You'll need your mouse though;-)


Jackson Pollock

This is a particular bugbear of my husbands', he hates it when he sees cats maiming/killing birds. I remember a few years back when after my then 8 year old hearing one of my husbands rants, knocked next door and told my (snotty) neighbour that they should put a bell on their cat as it was killing our wildlife. She informed him that HER CAT would never commit such an horrendous deed. About a week later we saw her husband take a bird out of said cats mouth and throw it behind their shed!!


It should be law to wear a bell say I!!

Yes I agree completely. And teenage girls should all be made to throw away any clothes that display their toned abdominal areas. Loose fitting polo shirts should be worn by all of them - by law. And men should not ever wear sandals if they have hairey toes...

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
