STRAY CAT
Many thanks to Nina for pointing me in the right direction as to how to go about checking if the poor , little thin cat living in our front gardens all weathers night and day and always ravenously hungry lived in a house we suspected it might hang out in. As Nina suggested, I put a note through the door asking if the cat belonged there as it was being fed by several kind people . Came home later to find a lady in my porch writing a note. She was of French origin she said . Tried various worming stuff but no help. I offered to go to a vet and get some for her.. The vet's nurse siad puss needed to be registered. Possibly not worms but Thyroid problems. Gave me their card and said lady could phone for free advice and they would give her the name of Chatities to help with the vet fees. She also sold me a little collar which had " Do not feed me " written on it. The owner of puss came from France so I wrote her a note in French explaining what the surgery had said and enclosed the litte collar and vets card. Next morning ,there was puss still in my garden without the collar I had bought and yowling for food. and a note from the owner merely saying do not feed my cat I havefed him. He will be ill if given more. Thinking other tenenants in the multi occupied house may have discarded my Ist. letter I wrote another in French explaining I had not let her down I had been to the vet etc. etc Not heard from lady since. Seems my trying to help has backfired. But today....no sign of the poor, elderly little pussy cat. I am hoping indoors perhaps or maybe gone to the vet. Niina and I did our best. Thank you Nina.
