One time we took three kittens to a pet store in Conway, and I will never forget in late Autumn/Fall when I found another kitten that was very hypothermic and later died in my arms :-( Johnny Edge is a good man and he would try and "humanely" manage his growing cat population before Winter. Sad to hear that the Inn is closed because that means Libby isn't with us :( and the Inn was her. Some lovely memories though of a beautiful place in the world.<br />Tricia, AustraliaOne nosey wombathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18036224771445582781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18804526.post-33574801107750104672009-08-25T15:03:00.825-07:002009-08-25T15:03:00.825-07:00I WAS A VISITOR IN 1951 WHEN I WAS 12 YEARS OLD!

There is a growing population of feral cats in our village and they have been poisoned and shot at. That's why I'm paranoid about mine getting out of the garden and onto the road. Our seventh cat, Willow, is due for the operation any tme now. I'm not looking forward to it because I remember how Parsley suffered ater she was spayed. When the English cats were 'done' they came back and recovered in no time but Parsley was crying in pain all night and there was nothing I could do to make her feel better. I rang the vet at 10.30 but she just told me not to worry and she'd be OK in the morning. Do you think a cat should be in pain like that? Maybe they have a different method in France. I noticed that in England they shaved the cat's side whereas in France they do it from the stomach.sablonneusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476429995734568701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18804526.post-76449236847128926892009-01-01T19:55:00.000-08:002009-01-01T19:55:00.000-08:00What a way to start 2009!
