@e_galv My 21 year old son has just finished four years at uni. Seems like more than half of his fellow students were transitioning or had some sort of condition. He is fed up of mentioning a name and us asking if the person he is talking about is ‘normal’.
@Malcolm_theCat You’ll have to get another set of kittens to cover any spare hours that Baby Dog is looking for someone to play with if existing cats are resting!
@Malcolm_theCat Great way for cats to spend time outside in the fresh air, watching and hearing the wildlife etc, while knowing they are completely safe from the dangers of vehicles, dogs, getting shut in sheds and other things you can’t control if your cat isn’t with you.
@siobhanworld I take my cat out in the garden on a harness and lead. She also has a £200 cat house that you can buy on Amazon. It is about 6ft high and 2ft wide with three shelves at different heights to sit on. She loves sitting in it bird watching, and on the lead gives her outside exercise.
@LeeAndersonMP_ Of course they should, they shouldn’t be getting anything like the amount a working couple would earn anyway. Benefits should just cover the basics for a short time.
@LordoftheSplash@Kat071014 Where is the compassion after a bereavement? It can take at least a year before some people can even bring themselves to clear out a loved ones belongings and face having to put their home up for sale.
@Kat071014 Our council tax is up to ten instalments of £437 this year. It is ridiculous. We are in a three bedroom small detached but our road used to be considered desirable, before they built a massive new housing estate across the road. The values have not been looked at since 1991.
@Eman5695 I adopted an ear-tipped ‘feral’ cat that we had seen in our garden from time to time for several years. She would bolt any time we came out the door but eventually accepted food from us. Later on she let us stroke her. She turned out to be the cuddliest, affectionate, loyal cat.
@steve_ward@Scots_Woe_Hey Our small 3 bed detached in Scotland is band G. There are some much larger houses in the same road that are worth three times what ours is, that are also in band G.
@Malcolm_theCat Mum will have to view Malcy in the category of the young, agile cats and make sure the four of you can’t slip out any doors and windows to escape. She probably thought you were too mature and sensible to try that.
@Malcolm_theCat Lovely to see two buddies hanging out together on a lovely day in their neighbourhood. If they were in France they would probably have a game of boules to pass the time!
