This is a wild (ferral) cat, which lives off scraps of food found in bins and will not allow anyone to touch her, except me. Where-ever she may be, when I take my smokebreaks outside my office, she runs to me and stays there until I go back into the office. She also waits for me at my office door early in the mornings and when I knock off in the afternoons, she vanishes into the bushes. I may however, not pick her up, but I can rub her back. She also sits right up against me when I'm standing outside.

She is lovely and what a gorgeous colour she is - those lovely eyes, looking up at you, saying you can stroke me now :lol:

POTM nomination for picture 3 - who will second the little beauty?

I've just been on annual leave (for more than a month) and was looking forward to returning to re-unite with my "office” cat......

It is now my third day back and has seen no sign of her, so I enquired and was told that she was found dead in front of my office, about 7 days after I left. They suspect that she was bitten by a Cobra in the bush and just made it back to the office where she died.

Well!!... Office cat... I'll miss our silent conversations during smoke breaks and that unique bonding we shared.... Rest in peace. (Sorry I was not available in your final moments)

I love happy endings!!

This is a very peculiar declaration to make M.R. Otter... I just think it would be very interresting if you could elaborate a little on what lead you to adopt such conviction. Personally, I experience it as a very sad event, which leaves a void in my daily routines and I will trully miss her presence..... sadly..... (No happy ending)

LOL, I know everyone will hate me for saying this!! :lol:

Nah!!... now why on earth would you think this??.... You merely made a statement, and everyone is entitled to their viewpoint....
 
i cant figure if it was a joke or

otter dont like cats sorry for your loss lud

he has 'issues' with ferral cats.

such a shame on her demise. I used to visit one of my suppliers who had a 'herd' of ferral cats. The place they loved to sleep the most? On top of his £100,000 Mercedes (the bonnet was nice and warm in the winter)
 
Aww ludwig that is so sad that is one of the most upsetting pet deaths Ive ever heard of :(
 
Oh, LV, that is terrible news. I'm sorry.

i used to have a office cat at work, and i left for another job and it didnt work out so i rejoined the company and she wouldnt speak to me for weeks. Anyway im not there anymore and havnt seen her for about a year, she was a ball of fluff curled up in my in tray so i know exactly how you feel, my cat a little tortishel was called lilliput.

Oh c'mon Ludwig, I'm not happy at all for what happened to this feral cat. You know why? Because that cat is special to someone which is you, I'm very sorry if I hurt your feelings.. The truth is if I saw a feral cat that's hurt or harmed I won't be happy, BUT if a feral cat or any other creature especially a person had hurt me or my pets had got hurt this will only make me feel secure for a while.
Again I'm very sorry for what happened to your cat, I know that it's hard for you to hear what happen.
 
Oh Ludwig, i'm so very sorry, I know she meant a lot to you and brightened your days
