joolstoo lmao

Oh Joanne, maybe I'm included in that mafia comment, but Thomcat's right, please just go and make it up both of you. Some people think you were right, some don't, that's mumsnet, but we'd all like it to be a happy ending. If this is for real, is it? Are there really 2 mumsnetters living that close to each other? Did they know the other was a mumsnetter? It's all v bizzare!

SenoraPostrophe · 29/04/2005 20:13

bosscat - that is outrageous. we'd have had a right neighbour war over that.

My favoured method of gettting neighbours cats out of my garden is the hose.

zebraX · 29/04/2005 20:20

May I just say, FairyFly, your form has been resplendent on this thread.

Now, update from the protagonists, Joanne & Ithinkitwasme?????

SenoraPostrophe · 29/04/2005 20:21

OK finally read the whole thread. Blimey.

Joanne - don't take it to heart. Your cat is fine. Ithinkitwasme - I'd have done the same thing, but my reactions aren't quick enough.

Enid · 29/04/2005 20:21

ff have just called you queen on other thread

you are truly the master

I threw water on my neighbours cat once because it got on my nerves

SenoraPostrophe · 29/04/2005 20:23

Actually, ithinkitwasme, do you want to come and stay at my house and see if you can catch the dogs who poo on the pavement outside? These are Spanish dogs and the ownsers just let them wander around.

Gobbledigook · 29/04/2005 20:28

Quote from FF: I'm sure a cat can handle a football, your cat sounds like it needs hardening up, far too precious, how is it going to ever win a fight or tear a birds head off

Sorry, just had to repost that for anyone who missed it. Absolutely PMSL!!!

Gobbledigook · 29/04/2005 20:28

oops, hope I don't spark another row - nt read the whole thread yet!

sparklymieow · 29/04/2005 20:30

my cat just brought a dead mouse in... does anyone want to throw a football at it???

lilsmum · 29/04/2005 20:33

i have 3 cats myself, and love them dearly...very much a animal lover, yet i have to say that this thread is hilarious!!

the "cat lovers" are like wind up clocks, and are easily riled up... too easily, i really dont think (well hope) that anyone on MN would take a air rifle to a cat! "cat lovers" dont get so serious, yes people dont like cats pooing in their gardens...which is fair enough, cant blame them really

Caligula · 29/04/2005 20:37

Joanne, you are so wrong about this that when I saw your first posts, I thought you were a troll, and am still not certain you aren't. But thank you for providing such a funny thread - FairyFly has excelled herself as usual!

How are you going to resolve the issue of your cat shitting in someone else's garden and upsetting their quality of life? Contrary to your insane opinion, cats don't have the right to shit wherever they like. I don't approve of cruelty to animals either, but a ball is not a brick or a bullet. Get a sense of proportion.

Love, Tony Soprano.

Gobbledigook · 29/04/2005 20:40

Right, finished reading the thread now and OMG - I have never laughed so much in all my life! Absolutely f*king hilarious!! FF and Starlover should be on the stage.

I detest cats. Pointless creatures imo and I really cannot fathom why anyone would have one.

lilsmum · 29/04/2005 20:45

oh gobbledigook, you are gonna get lynched now lol..wait for the stampede of replies to why cats are great pets (they are btw lol)

Xena · 29/04/2005 20:48

Top Thread have been PMSL

highlander · 29/04/2005 20:52

to quite the lovely Samuel L Jackson from 'Jackie Brown'

'AK47 - when you absolutely, positively have to kill every cat in the neighbourhood? Accept no substitute'

Sorry about late contribution. Time difference and all that. Over here in Canada its bears people go mental about shitting in their back garden. You're not allowed to shoot them at all, and there's no-one to point the finger at for the piles of shit either

starlover · 29/04/2005 20:53

ahh, but can you throw a football at them?

WigWamBam · 29/04/2005 20:54

Cats are great pets, but I don't expect that everyone will adore mine and certainly wouldn't mind if someone threw something at her to stop her pooing on their garden.

This thread's really odd, seems such an unlikely co-incidence ...

elsmommy · 29/04/2005 20:55

Joanne23, did you go round?

highlander · 29/04/2005 20:55

No. But soccer balls are de rigour

Actually, don't see many cats in our village. And there's the soccer fields nearby... Coincidence?? Hmmmmm

starlover · 29/04/2005 20:57

i think not highlander! so maybe football really should be our weapon of choice.
I think if you threw one at a bear, the bear would eat you

LGJ · 29/04/2005 20:58

I am on the floor reading this

FF, I was howling at the image of you holding your X's dick out the window

It would appear that Caffreys is a diuretic

frogs · 29/04/2005 20:59

I thought bears shit in the woods.
