Ooooh - What a good idea, cats. I am sure I saw one of their posters nearby recently as well.

Give your local Cats Protection a call. We had a beautiful male tabby who took up residence a few months back and decided he wanted to live indoors and not in the woodshed. One female was fine with him but the other one wouldn't come near and fought him off so he had to go. We contacted them , took him over to them, they had him checked for microchips, neutered and found him a loving home.

I've heard thatb some sort of sweet sugar type fluid is obnoxious to cats as they can't taste sweet, just the sticky sensation.

Just over a year ago we only had Homer - Our 8 or so year old brown male (neutered) tabby. Then came Molly. Patchwork quilt of a long legged female kitten with a permanent manic expression. She still runs round at 90 miles an hour but Homer has stopped beating her up now anyway. She was from an unwanted litter. That was about a year ago. About 3 months ago Lilley turned up. Beautiful natured grey tabby who decided to live in our utility room / shed. She was so lovely we couldn't get rid of her but she was un-neutered an on heat so attracted all the neighbourhood toms. We had her neutered and checked over - She is about 2 or 3 years old and had probably had a couple of litters already. So now we have 3.

Anyway, a few weeks ago, who can only be Lilleys brother (or father or son) turned up. He is of very similar markings and colour to Lilley anyway. He is now named Pepe (as in le pugh - he has a stripe down his back and he stinks). He seems to have something wrong with his left front paw and cannot put it down. No way are we having another one - He needs neutering as well as his paw fixing. He comes round every day but we can't find where he is from.

Anyone any ideas what we can do with him?

Cheers

Dave
