Went round to see if we could help (couldn't) - by dint of a spectacular piece of bravery from Mr.Kitten Owner, going up sixty feet odd on a ladder in the dark by railway tracks, and a fiendish bit of ingenuity on the part of Mrs.Kitten Owner, fashioning a cat carrier/washing pole entrapment device, Boris the kitten was safely recovered. Better than the telly, it was!
I won't pussy foot around this, thank you everybody for avoiding this cat-astrophy by a whisker. I hope Boris is feline better soon. There were some hairy moments, but I'm glad there's a happy end to this tail. I'd like to paws to salute the purr-severance of the rescue team.
Huge thanks to Hugh for posting the message in the first place, genius & huge thanks to Cat & Wes... You guys were beyond amazing & Boris is home & safe after over 2 days. Honestly my faith in humanity was restored tonight as I met some pretty amazing people that took time out to help... Made our weekend. Thank you East Dulwich forum... Boris is still purring but about to collapse from his ordeal. Hope I can pay it forward sometime soon xx
You're v welcome. And I am now a little tipsy ;-). Glad Boris is back in your loving home. Hugha - some terrible puns there, thought I was bad. Thanks to the random builder today who left his massive ladder outside the flat - fate if ever there was some. Best Wez + Cat x
Hi all, Hugh... Some amazing puns there... Finished off the whole story purr-fectly!! Massive thanks to Cat & Wez again. Did call around, RSCPA said to call Firebrigade, Railtrack/Netwotk rail told me to call Fire service as they're the only ones that can call for permission to resume on their property. Fire service said he'd eventually come down when hungry. Thank goodness we rescued him without going onto Network rail property :-)
A wonderful happy ending, and solved a mystery for me. We had a distraught message from the builder to say the ladders he left outside the flat had disappeared. By the time we got home late Saturday evening they were right where he left them. We wondered how he could possibly have missed them! Very glad they were put to such good use.

    • Yes, the Council's scheme for Peckham Rye station square is going ahead and is welcomed. However, the major project for the rebuilding of the station itself to provide improved accessibility has not received government funding and is being 'paused'. There seems little prospect of that scheme now going ahead in the current Parliament. This is regrettable as it is one of the busiest stations on the network outside central London. 
    • A  description limited to just " white, 50s, male" would be equally useless in identifying anybody, because it could apply to so many people. What point are you trying to make? And I didn't "jump down the OP's throat." The way the thread has developed is how threads work. Different people have different views on things. And the point about media references to migrants and single mothers was relevant to the discussion.
    • What would be the point of that?  It may work in a  USA style mall where there’s maybe a single point of entry and armed security people.  But here financially, it wouldn’t work. 
    • I think there's a similar square-type thing around Queens Road Peckham, which has stayed in pretty good nick. It was certainly a vast improvement.  Having said that, it would be terribly sad if small businesses suffer in the process. I love the fruit 'n' veg stalls & shops on Rye Lane, and the atmosphere in general atmosphere and very much hope that a new station square and the stalls aren't mutually exclusive.
