My cat was killed on Weds early evening. The driver didn't stop - a neighbour called me to tell me. I was on my way home and collected his body around 8pm - some kind people had taken him in and put him in a box. To the driver, if you are reading this - if you do this again have the courtesy to stop and ring the number on the tag. Perhaps you didn't realise - but the roads here are quiet and if you'd been driving at low speed and paying attention I doubt this would have happened. It's caused us much heartbreak. He was not even 2 years old.

Sorry to hear about this - we lost our cat same way last summer.

I just wanted to balance above comments because not everyone who runs over a cat is reckless, speeding or aware of the mishap / choosing to ignore it. The fact a cat is called or injured doesn?t automatically mean the driver was reckless.

I saw a fox run over recently on CP Rd, the car was doing maybe 10mph and probably had their stereo on - which will be why they probably didn?t hear the poor creature howling like a banshee after it?s pelvis got crushed.

Why would anyone write a response like that, with such a sudden, distressing detail as that, on a thread like this?? Written by someone who is obviously really upset about the loss of their cat? Why would you do that??


So sorry to hear about your cat Cinders.

Oh that's terrible news. I am very sorry Cinders. He was a sweet little cat, very friendly and he used to come and say hello to my old cat Luke. It's funny, I thought I saw him recently at my kitchen window but it must have been his ghost looking for Luke. He had this habit of jumping onto my wheely bin and "talking" through the window to Luke. I'm sure Luke will miss him. RIP Pixie.

So very sorry about the loss of your sweet Pixie. It is awful to lose a pet, especially such a young one and in such an unexpected manner.


It happened to my cat when I was a child (waaay back in the 70s), and I still remember every single thing about that awful day. The loss stays with you, but so, too, do the lovely memories of your sweet kitty.

    • I want to use them in plant pots like crocks. PM me if you have some. Thanks 
    • Does anyone know of any local tennis clubs that don't have an obscene waiting list?    Have tried: North Dulwich LTC, Dulwich Sports Club, Old College Lawn, Camber lawn.    All saying like minimum 2-3 years for a place. If there's anywhere else worth checking, would love to know! 
    • Met Atilla at Forest Fest in Honor Oak last year.  Otway wasn't playing with him at the New Cross Gig.  A band called Newtown Neurotics also played but I don't remember them.  I also don't remember seeing Blur opening in a four band tour at the Academy around this time, or Pulp supporting St Etienne at the Shepherds Bush Empire a couple of years later. David Badiel and Rob Newman played the Venue around the same time; he is discussing this with Verne on Radio 2.  Googled for more info and oddly came up with this thread. I expect this will have zero interest for most of you. Unless you want to talk about famous bands you saw, but don't remember.
    • James and his colleague just helped me move items between two flats in East Dulwich. He went above & beyond and is a really friendly guy, I will definitely use him again in the future.  James : 07904897508
