Sorry not to have read this part of SG.org before. I think I've seen your cat hanging around my house. Next time I see him, I'll check for the micro-chip you mentioned. I'm on SGR, by the way.
That said, you've gone so utterly over the top with Arkady, I'm really not sure that *more* cat exposure is really what you need...
“I've no intention of coming in and introducing myself … You sound like you want to smack me in the face, and I can't see what else would be achieved.”
I genuinely hope that your cat returns soon in good health, and that you consequently feel less angry. Maybe one day we’ll meet up and be friends.
@:Brodiej: I promise you my response was entirely sincere. Which just goes to show.
As an aside, I honestly think that if I had lost a pet* – a situation I have been in before, so I know how it makes one feel – I’d still find that poster hilarious.
Arky
*and I had a dog too, which counts, like, twice as much.
I was hoping we could have a discussion that's all, do give me a ring so we can meet up as I would like to talk with you. Arkady is an unusual name, I will ask around, maybe we will bump in to each other, that would be splendid
This thread got ridiculous very quickly.
He might have come across a touch insensitive but I'm pretty sure it wasn't malicious.
I have a cat too and found the poster funny but it may have been inappropriate for this thread (I'm always up for a funny cat thread).
I do hope dbopenlock finds his cat and I will keep my eyes peeled around the area, good luck!
That's fine. But I think comments like these should be posted on another thread, not mine. My thread is solely for the purpose of finding my cat Grizzly who is missing.
If Arkady had started his own thread, perhaps entitled "disabled cats are hilarious" that would be up to him. Then you, miss annie, along with Arkady could laugh as much as you wanted at missing disabled cats and post on this forum as you pleased. That is your right in a free society and on an excellent forum like this, but do not expect me to laugh at disabled cats, ever.
Arkady's comments have distressed me that is why I have requested them to be removed. They may not be removed but I think they should be. I am searching for my missing cat and offering a reward of £200 for his safe return, me and my Brother are in the Islington Gazette today and have put many, many posters up and leaflets through letterboxes. The search continues for our cat Grizzly. That is what this thread should be about.
It should not be about people like Arkady and miss annie, people like you who think it is fine to make fun of disabled animals, people like you who think it is fine to post the things you post on a honest and decent thread like this, start your own thread and leave me alone to continue my search for my cat Grizzly.
I thanked you, miss annie for keeping an eye out for my cat, I take that back now, I don't want any help from someone who thinks missing disabled cats are a joke and funerals are the stuff of humour. There are enough good people on here who are looking out for Grizzly and I am sure they will also keep an eye out for the 3 legged cat that has gone missing. I am not without a sense of humour, even a dark sense of humour, but it is best to laugh after the tragedy has been, not during it.
I posted my phone number and invited Arkady to phone me so we could meet up and talk, I would have said to him what I have expressed in this post, no more, no less. He has nothing to fear from me, posting youtube video's about cats for me on this forum, while I am searching high and low for my cat is beneath my contempt.
edited to add: sincers posted while I was reading the past couple of days' worth of the thread, but I like that we both mentioned the pizza debate as totemically Stroud Green.
Thanks for your kind words and for looking for Grizzly.
Just signed onto the site and saw this thread ! Can" t stand the thought of someone losing a pet !
Things seem to have gotten out of hand here, what i fail to understand is , what is it in some people that makes them laugh at other peoples tragedy??????? I really don"t get this !!
If Arkady found anything remotely amusing about a missing cat post, why did n"t he keep his non funny humour to himself !
There is a saying.... .... There"s a time and a place.... It would seem that Arkady does"nt know the time and does n"t know his place !!
I would advise db not to rise to pure ignorance and it is obvious that anything said by db was born out of nothing but provocation.
really hope Grizzly returns safe and sound db......i will keep my eyes open.
We would like to thank all the decent people on SG.org who have kept an eye out for him and have offered us help and advice on finding him.
We found the little 3 legged tabby this morning when doing our front garden hiding in a bush at the side of my bay window ( she is back home now with her very sweet owner doing well). I was particularly surprised to find her there as both our dogs regularly patrol the window one even sleep in it . I guess she must have realised they would be unlikely to attack her while helping keep other cats/foxes at bay.
