Hope it's not inappropriate for me to ask for help on this one - this is my first time on EDF and I must say it looks very useful!


I live at the bottom end of Henslowe (not far from the church at the bottom of Upland Road where it meets Barry). My young, neutered male cat, ARCHIE, ginger and white, went missing yesterday. He is chipped and has a collar with his details attached. He has a marked limp (back left leg)from a horrible injury he got the last time he went missing about three months ago. He has caused me much grief and loads of money already but me and his sister miss him.Any news, good or bad welcome.He has a great curiuosity about holes and I wonder if he might have tangled with a fox. I have leafleted and put some posters up around the area - this is just a long shot.... any one in my area including the middle bit of Barry Road please let me know any news, good or bad. Thanks

Have decided to add land line number - there's an ansaphone 0208 693 4949

Thanks for the kind words and support - they've cheered me up a bit. Will let you know if the Wanderer returns.

Today is a day of firsts for me - first use of EDF and soon off to try the Street Car based in Friern Road.I'm sure there must be a string about this but I haven't had time to explore the EDF site yet.

My ginger kitten recently went missing from Ferris Road and was found two weeks later right out up the other end of Barry Road and so it is worth while covering a large area with your posters and maybe put one up near the post office and/or station as that will get a wide audience.
I will broaden my poster campaign and keep my fingers crossed - can't believe he's gone again after the traumas of last time but I can't imagine him as a house cat - guess I'll have to consider it though if he ever comes home!The not knowing is the worse part.

Indeed, it's a good idea to broaden your search. The rascal who went AWOL for a month was mine! When we initially searched we foolishly thought being quite a shy, 'homey' cat he'd only have made it a couple of roads either side of us but he had in fact made it all the way from Pellatt Road to Lacon Road!


I really hope you find him. Mr Princess and I will certainly keep an eye out for him.

GOOD NEWS - the wanderer has returned. Got back home after another gloomy trek round putting up posters and lo and behold there he was, sitting in the hall looking very pleased with himself. He's hungry but very lively, can only think he must have been shut in by someone over the Bank holiday weekend. This cat has caused me to age prematurely and must now surely be very low on lives! Thanks to all, your support has been great, much appreciated.

    • Good idea - Sue are you happy to speak to the owner of Health Matters? Thanks
    • The Stray Cat Club is in urgent need of local volunteers & foster homes across East Dulwich & surrounding areas. With rescue pleas coming in daily, the demand is rising - especially for vulnerable kittens, abandoned pets & overlooked strays in need of safety, warmth & care.   Whether you can offer: - A safe, temporary home (even short-term or kitten-specific) - Transport help (vet runs, collections, drop-offs) - Admin support, fundraising or social media help - Raising Awareness through educating the general public. ... you can make a real difference. Fostering is fully supported - all food, litter & veterinary care is provided. You don't need a garden, just a quiet space, a kind heart & commitment. Every safe space created means another cat pulled from danger. If you've been waiting for a sign - this is it! Please reach out via The Stray Cat Club official website https://straycatclub.org.uk/ & follow on Instagram @thestraycatclub (https://www.instagram.com/thestraycatclub/) & Please, please continue to spread the importance of spaying, neutering & microchipping your cats. Thank you.
    • Absolutely agree , the pool is in a disgusting state at the moment. I’ve also noticed how dirty it’s been lately, especially around the edges and in the changing rooms. It’s honestly at the point where it feels unhygienic, and I wouldn’t be surprised if people got sick from swimming in it. You’ve done the right thing by reporting it  hopefully if more of us raise concerns , they’ll take it seriously. Happy to add my voice to any formal complaint or petition if that helps. Thanks for speaking up — you’re definitely not alone!  
    • Let's see if we can get a key so the notice board can actually be updated by someone who cares and has time (thank you Jellybeanz, if you want to do that, and if Sue can get a key), or we can have a group of key holders and content managers. It's not hard is it. There's not really any point having one if it doesn't have information
