Glad mine are indoor cats too. too many cats have been killed up my road by speeding motorists!
Hope Biggles will be ok, you know where i am if you need me x

I was reading the other day that our local council just bins dead cats that are found in public, even though they have microchip readers that are used for dogs!?! I presume it's the same most places but to me that is diabolical!!!! How many people are still searching for missing cats that the council have binned???

thats just disgusting think of all the little kids sitting at home waiting for kitty to come home when puss is realy in the bottom of a rubbish tip never to be found again

Tha is simply horrible. If it is a matter of money - they could just charge the owners.

mad:Also their are some vets who don't check for chips unless requestedI agree wholeheartedly AJ-it's bloody diabolical and barbaric

These cats have lived entirley outside since they were 5 months old!I cant see them adapting after 8/10 years of freedom very happily.they are not like my other cats who have never known it any other way.

3 out of my 4 cats are virtually indoor cats (age rather than me not letting them outside, they're 19, 14 and 10), the 10 year old cat (still refered to as the kitten, lol)never went out of the garden anyway, but out of 15 cats (those that I've owned myself and those that I grew up with only 3 have been hit by cars (all 3 were instantly killed)- 1 of my cats had been hit by a car before I rescued him and hadn't seen a vet as a result his pelvis isn't aligned properly but other than that he's fine, he does wheeze a little due to a broken rib that never set properly and he snores loudly (but that could just be how he always was). He has almost full use of his back legs, but even after 6 years of me owning him he still prefers to use his front paws to pull himself up the tree in my garden.
I hope your cat pulls through, it's awful when somethings happened to them and you can't make it better straight away. Fingers crossed for you and the cat.

I hope he recovers well, all the best
