I have frequent visits from an all black cat, who seems very familiar with my flat (I moved to Oakhurst Grove a month ago). She (I think it's a she anyway) has been spending more and more time sleeping in my garden and roams in and out of the flat if I have the door open. She is very friendly and playful, and her visits are most welcome. I'm just concerned that someone might be missing her, or that she might not be getting fed properly if she is genuinely lost. So please get in touch if your cat is spending a lot of time away from home! The previous tenants had a cat, which I am told had many friends in the neighbourhood, so it may just be that she is used to holidaying at mine!


I think I can feel a chip, so if she continues to stick around today I will try to borrow a carry case and take her to the vet tomorrow to get it read.

If this is a long haired black cat who is very vocal, then perhaps I am also feeding her/him. S/he appears regularly most mornings and continues to wail until fed (2 packets of soft, wet food only), after which s/he makes a swift exit. I live in The Gardens and have been feeding this animal for quite some time. My impression is that s/he does have an owner who seems to groom the cat extensively. As the animal seems quite happy to disappear after being fed and just lurks in the garden occasionally, I have just assumed that I am pandering to a "Six Dinner Sid".

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
