Cat's back


Almost three months to the day, the cat has been found.

She seems to have been 'transported' from our house to a small village on the other side of town - about 5km.

A kindly lady saw the cat in her garden and tried to feed her for two months - but with little success.

Then, a couple of weeks ago, the cat went into her house and a few days later she was able to feed her. Once she had gained the cat's trust, the woman took her to the vet because the cat was in poor condition and he de-wormed her and gave her a check-up. He also checked to see if she had been 'chipped' and that's how we got the cat back.

The woman rang us on Friday and we picked up the poor, skinny cat on Saturday morning.

Several sessions of brushing resulted in a carrier bag full of fur, which seems to indicate that the cat had been living outside for some considerable while.
So, she's back - nervous, but seems happy and is eating like a horse.

Missing Cat


Cat (pictured) went missing on Monday night - well, to be precise, she didn't come home Tuesday morning.

Strange - she usually hangs around within 50 meters of the house. No amount of whistling and calling yesterday evening would get her to come back. Nippers are a bit distressed, P very distressed.

Let's see what today will bring. If you do see a grey 'tiger' cat around in Wil, Sankt Gallen, Switzerland - give me a ring 079 702 3393. Thanks

On a lighter note, I see that too much / too many television/s is / are being implicated in a double murder in the UK....

This is the interesting para: "Detectives investigating the murder of an elderly couple found dead in their home on Good Friday have found two televisions they were hunting for as part of the inquiry."

Murdering bastards - I bet it was the Panasonic and the Sony was an accomplice...
