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".

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
