People let their dogs shit on my garden. Bigger stools too!

Our cat is an indoor cat but we have many neighbors with outdoor cats who piss in our bushes.

So sad to report that our lovely boy, Chancer left us yesterday.

We think he'd been hit by a car in the road. My wife found him in our garden very shortly afterwards but he was already gone. He'd tried to get home to us.

We're both so incredibly sad. He's been our boy for the last 16 years and we miss him so much.

I don't quite know how anybody can hit a cat and just drive on ?

I don't know if the law has changed but ridiculously at one time you had to stop legally if striking a dog but not a cat. Bloody stupid law anyway.

I stopped years ago to pick up a cat that we saw the car in front of us hit on a country lane and just carried on regardless. We spent an hour trying to find the owner as we felt sad and were successful. 

You can usually tell If a good judge of character if the individual is an animal lover. 

Sorry to here of your loss - it always feels like part of the family is missing and they are. ?

Sorry for your loss.

My Niece recently lost her young cat to a road collision, looks rather like yours except probably 15 3/4 years younger, too young to have enough road sense despite them living in a cul-de-sac.

I've hit a cat when driving, it was really awful as I watched it die after just a few seconds. Shan't say the nature of the injuries but I doubt it was in pain which was a blessing. Had to move it to the side of the road then work out what to do. A neighbor recently had somebody turn up with their injured cat, told by the person where they were visiting etc, cat passed away at the vets but transpires the person gave incorrect info, don't know why because I can't see they were going to get a claim on the car insurance or anything so honesty wouldn't have cost them anything.

So sorry to hear the sad news.

[DaveC72]

Really sorry to hear your news.   Thoughts with you all.

[eeyoreish]

Some happier news. It's 9 weeks since Chancer left us and we've just welcomed a new member to the Eeyoreish family.

Meet Monty. He's a 9 weeks old ginger boy, very friendly and follows us everywhere...

[andydclements]

Must remember, more cute = more food from the slaves.

 

 

 

Great news.

[eeyoreish]

It's working so far!

Had to re-post this....anyone who has ever tried to make a cat swallow a pill will understand. Just read it out to the family, we're all in tears of laughter.

I can only see 1!!

[DaveC72]

I had two, but the cats destroyed the other  !

[oilmagnet477]

I'm guessing (from the obvious speed of movement of the cat!!) that you stuffed it in the box and just managed to get this taken before the cat ran off at lightening speed??????

lol. No.

She actually plays (adopts manly voice) "Peek-a-boo" and hides inside the box until you call her name at which point she sticks her head out, before  cwtching back down again.
