We live on Everthorpe Road, which lies between Oglander and Copleston Road at the Grove Vale end.

Over the last few days a friendly short-haired black cat has been coming in through our cat flap, trying to adopt us it seems!


They are average size, doesn't look very young, doesn't meow at all, all black, no white patches, and has one white whisker on the right side as you look at him. Can't tell if male or female, but we may take them to a vet to check for a chip, and then check the sex then.


They seem in good health and their coat looks well so i don't think they're a stray but am wondering if they are a local cat whose owners have gone away perhaps as the cat seems keen for company.

Have spoken with local neighbours but they don't know, so maybe they are from further afield.


If you recognise the cat in the attached pictures, please let us know.


Thanks,


Simon.

It is very possible that this is our cat... she loves to wander the gardens between Oxenford and Everthrope and she is very sociable - she used to go in our next door neighbours flat when the neighbour left her back door open and she would sit and watch the neighbour do her washing up in the kitchen and meow at her. She is terribly vocal - she would be doing her best to communicate with you constantly with her meow's so if this cat isn't doing that I don't think it's her! One photo it looked like her but the other not so much .... it could be a black cat that lives somewhere on Marsden Road or Ondine Road .... I was stuck by the Marsden/Ondine black cat's resemblence to ours, except it was abit more stocky.
Are we talking about same poster? As there are posters up re a lost black and white cat, the one I saw was a small poster, all black cat, haven't seen poster anywhere else other than on lampost on corner between Oxenford and copleston. Doesn't give much detail. Good luck with solving who it belongs to.

Raised by Bears - no, our friendly visitor doesn't have a collar. We tried putting a paper collar on with our contact details but they hated that and tore it off quickly.


Turtle - no news yet. We've gone away for a week, so if they're still visiting when we return, we'll take them to the ver to see if they're chipped.

Found: one elderly male black and white cat, been regularly seen by skips and bins in Honour Oak Park area for a few weeks and mentioned in local forums. Picked up in Honour Oak Park on Tues 20th Sept, checked over by the lovely folks at CHAT Lewisham but not microchipped unfortunately. Currently being cared for. He is very friendly and has clearly been loved. Please get in touch with a photo or description for verification if anyone thinks he belongs to them. Thanks

    • Miranda Sawyer of the (once) Observer has done a piece on festival on Insta which might be of-interest.  Councils are private companies, imo. They make money for themselves, imo.  I do not think by law that they have to follow anything brought up by a consultation, this is for 'face' only - hence, LTNs and everything else.  
    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.
