HI,


Our big, black, male cat called Cosmo/Coz(no collar but chipped to Celia Hammond, Lewisham)went missing on the afternoon of the 23rd, he likes a wander but this is way out of character as he loves his food. He's a very friendly, talkative cat, a real character and we miss him terribly. If you've seen anything that might help please let me know on 07809640218 and if you have a garden shed or glasshouse, please have a check.


Thank you, Bruce + Bronwen

Hi and a Happy New Year to all,


I just wanted to say we've still seen nothing of COSMO, the black cat, it's been over a week and we're really worried. We've checked the local vets, put up posters, checked his microchip...so if anyone has taken in a cat for xmas, can they please take it to the vets and check that it does/doesn't have an owner by looking at the chip?... If anyone does see a big, friendly, talkative, green-eyed black cat, please give us a call on 07809640218.


Thank you

Hi


Just a quick message to say that we're still looking for Cosmo, no leads yet, but we're still living in hope. I notice that there seem to have been quite a few cats go missing over Christmas, not sure why that is, but I sympathise with all of you who have lost a kitty, it's a horrible feeling, not knowing what's happened (esp at xmas - kind of ruined ours)and I truly hope that you all have success in finding your little buddies.


Bruce & Bron

I'm very sorry to hear Cosmo is still missing. I know what a horrid feeling it is.


Have you tried putting some of his dirty litter, or some of your dirty (as smelly as possible!) clothes outside? We did this when one of our boys went missing last year and he came back a few hours later. Admittedly he'd only been gone a few days and it might have been a coincidence but if Cosmo has been locked in somewhere over Xmas and is a bit disoriented, it might help him find his way home.


Fingers crossed he's back very soon - and don't give up, there have been cats on this forum returning home after months!

Hi, we lost our black cat on 17-01-16 and after much searching, leafleting all the houses & putting up posters, we found him last night!

My husband went out at 11pm when it was quiet & banged a food tin ,calling the cats name & eventually Spider came running. He was lost quite away from home, very scared & hungry. Thought this might help you look for Cosmo. Try to leaflet as many houses & talk to as many people as you can ( it was hard work but the kids enjoyed knocking on doors asking for their help).Don't just do the closest houses, because chances are he's wandered farther than you think. I really hope you find him safe & well.

Thank you so much, I'm really glad you found him, that's amazing! We have tried everything, but maybe we should go a little farther out...it's been a month now, so we're both pretty dejected and down, but we still have some hope, especially as you found Spider!

yeah, we've tried everything, I've registered on all the lost pet sites, put posters up, gone door-to-door, alerted the chip company/Celia Hammond/rspca...I can't think of anything else...he's a big, strong, noisy cat with plenty of character, I just can't believe that he's just disappeared of the face of the planet.

Hi,


just a quick reminder, if you see a big, black cat who looks a little lost, or is begging for food(loudly), or someone you know has taken one in off the street (do please get his chip scanned)...please give me a shout on 07809640218 or pm me. We still haven't given up hope that our wonderful cat Cosmo is still out there somewhere, even after 5 weeks.


Thanks


Bruce & Bronwen

Already done all that & everything we could possibly do, apart from put traps and static cameras out a la Springwatch! He's either lost and living rough, someone has taken him in or he's gone...I just hope it's the first two. He has a chip so if something has/had happened to him, I'd like to think we'd hear about it.
Hey don't give up hope! One of ours kept going missing last year and it ended up a very kind lady was taking her in occasionally. She goes through periods of losing weight for a bit then bouncing back, has a thyroid problem. Your cat looks strong and healthy so he may have just got lost and been taken in for a while. I really hope your bro comes back soon.

Hi Vik,


I think that was for 'Ivan' who was picked up before Christmas and taken to Celia Hammond. He's still there and a lovely black cat by all accounts, so if anyone is looking for a nice, chatty black cat, give Celia Hammond Lewisham a call. RE: Cosmo, I have checked with the RSPCA and he does have a chip, so it's almost certainly not him, but thank you for thinking of him!


B&B

So we got a lead about a very big black cat, seen coming out of Lettsom Gardens (Grove Park, Camberwell)last week, which sounds like a good lead and it's pretty close to us...I spent an hour in the gardens calling his name and rustling a treats packet but got nothing although the weather was a bit poor. If it is him, somebody must be feeding him/taking him in...if you live in that area (top of Camberwell Grove, Grove Park, Grove Hill Rd, Bromar, Ivanhoe), please keep your eyes open for him, he should answer/come to 'Cozzy'.


Many thanks


Bruce & Bron

    • Good morning, neighbours! We have around 1,000+ glasses like these from a café that just closed down. Not sure if anyone would like to keep some before we send them to charity. Please feel free to come and pick them up at 22 Upland Road, SE22 9EF anytime before 31st Oct😉    
    • What "stricter" consequences could there be for shoplifting (or any other crime) than being put into jail, do you think? Though our prisons are of course full enough already, without more people being shoehorned  into them.
    • Returning to the original question, I had my jabs at Tessa Jowell yesterday. I was early and I was  seen on time, and it was a lovely pharmacist who did them, but the admin beforehand (not by her) was a bit iffy. I was given forms to fill in but not told what to do with them afterwards, so I  presumed I had to take them into the consulting room, as the rest was supposed to be filled in by a clinician, but no! After some time had elapsed and I had found a seat (there was no information on where to sit either, so people were sitting in two separate areas, neither of which had many seats) my name was called and  the forms were taken behind the counter. Be aware if you don't have an appointment - even in the relatively short time I was there, three people turned up without appointments having been sent there by a GP (I presume) or having  previously been  asked by the pharmacy to come  back at a different time, and they were all sent away again because the pharmacy didn't have enough flu vaccine until the following day. I have no idea if this was due to a misunderstanding on the people's side, their GP's or the pharmacy's, but none of them were very happy, and one lady said she "couldn't keep coming back" 😭  At least one of them didn't seem to understand what he was being told, possibly due to a language issue. I felt quite sorry for the pharmacist, who was giving jabs all day on top of her usual workload but still managing to stay cheerful! Though she wasn't the one dealing with the unhappy people! I have a sore arm from the Covid jab (I chose to have the jabs in different arms), but no other ill effects so far, touch wood. 
    • Line speed and the strength of your Wi-Fi signal are two separate things.  The first is determined by the type of connection (fibre/copper etc) to the outside world and the second is the connection between the device (printer/TV/laptop/tablet etc) and the router. If you are connecting a device to the router using cables (as Alec1 is) then this is will give the best possible connection but isn't practical for many without a degree of upheaval and even then not all devices (tablets for example) will allow a wired connection. So you relying on the quality of the Wi-Fi signal from the router to the device and this will depend on the quality of the router, the type of Wi-Fi connection (the frequency), line of sight etc - many different things.  This is why some people opt for a "mesh" type setup which is supposed to give a solid quality of Wi-Fi signal around the house with little or no blackspots.  It's expensive though and still requires the devices that send and receive the signal (like the plug-ins you have) to be wired to the router.
