The co ap cat. Aubi to complain

[Tinktravels]

At my local co-op in the village where I live half of the time that I go in I go in there is a random cat walking around the aisles.
I have asked staff about this before but All they have really said is that it is the local cat and it is always in and out of the few little shops there.

I am definitely not a cat lover and I don't really like the thought of the cat walking around the food shop.
Aubi to complain or should I just let it go and drive further out to a different store if it bothers me.

Me too. Maybe there's a gap in the market, 🤔

There is uncovered fruit in store yes

It won't be interested in fruit, but if it's one of those Co-Ops who sell warmed meaty pastries at lunch I guarantee it'll be up on the shelf after those

I'm very fond of cats and am completely stupid over my two, but even I wouldn't like that - though as PPs have said, good luck if they're trying to keep it out!!

DH used to have an office cat. Both cat and staff were quite happy

Dear me. What a fuss over nothing.
Most germs in that Coop are not from the cat.

Much more to do with all the people traipsing in and out with goodness knows what on their shoes, breathing and sniffing and touching everything. That's a shop for you.

We have a Morrisons cat around here.

50 thousand hands have touched your open produce. And 10 billion insects had a wee on your lettuce.dont worry .

Well that's a rather catty comment...

Our town has a hospital cat. To be fair he doesn't go inside the main hospital but he hangs out in the entrance and chills on the bonnet of the ambulances. A coop cat wouldn't bother me at all

You're thinking of dogs @CuntyChopss and there's men on here too.

Cat will be cleaner than most small children.

Is it to do with the disaster of a thread title?

Our co-op cat has his own Facebook page!

@Sparklingbrook I never noticed co ap until now 🤣

or 'aubi'? We knew what you meant, and no idea why anyone was ASing you for troll hunting purposes.

That's what Co-op stands for, didn't you know? "Cats on our premises". Lol.

We've got a local Co op cat too. She lives nearby and divides her time between the Co op and Lidl on the other side of the road. I always worry that she might get run over.

@Sparklingbrook oh nope I didn't notice that either until you said! I also never proof read anything which I should probably start doing as when texting I always speak into my phone and let it type for me, and it always gets things wrong!

It's probably a security employee disguised as a cat.

@Tinktravels

claiming to be a clean freak, rather implies that those of us thst wouldn't mind, aren't hygienic.

id be happy to see the cat wandering around. It's nothing bathing amongst the freshly baked rolls.

it's very clear you've never been in a supermarket warehouse & it's best for your MH that it stays that way.

one small bit of advice, never drink directly from a can/bottle if not plastic wrapped and even then...

I went to my local Lidl and there was a cat sitting on top of the trolleys outside. I like cats so started to talk to it (as you do....) and petted it and noticed it had a collar and tag. So checked the tag to get it's name and the tag just said "I like Lidl" and then a phone number. Apparently it actually lives across the road but likes to hang out to get extra attention when it's person isn't at home. Lovely!!

We used to have a cat in the Co op I work at. It lived next door. ... Bloody thing used to go to sleep on the bottom magazine rack and then wake up in the night and wander around and set the burglar alarm off....!!

My local hospital has one too. He likes to chill in A&E 🤣 He’s got his own Facebook page.

I tried chasing him out 3 times one night. Gave up, and he slept under a radiator and keep looking up and giving me a smug glance 🙄
