    I can't let my cat out - he's rubbish he just gets lost. People pick him up and take him to the vets cos he's half bald (OCD cat over washes himself!) and has 3 legs, so whenever he does missing I ring all the local vets :)

    also boy cats like to roam their territory every so often, if they are intact that is ;)

    Ideally Housing Development/Project Management / Regeneration (Housing Association / Council Housing).

    That's a lot of slashing...

    So long as it pays more than your current 'job' - that's all you need.

    He's not exactly a "blend in with the crowd" cat is he?

    No - he is easy to find, but he's so friendly he'll b*gger off with anyone!

    I'm relaxed about my slashing! Not going for that job - they are looking for someone with loads of customer service experience which I don't have. Will look at others tomorrow night.

    When trying to track down a missing cat, it being bald and three legged must help!

    I would suspect with a lisp, it's probably not a cat it's Kaiser Soze. Be afraid.....be very afraid

    Glad to see the chat back up and running again, I feel so out of the loop with so many of my friends and feel as though we are all drifting apart from each other.:(
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
