Free buggy

Red buggy with rain cover. The wheels are in bad condition and the rubber on them is very deteriorated. Maybe you would replace the wheels or use for parts. It works ok apart from the wheels issue.…Back to Harringay Online

The first 100 days
Posted on November 15, 2011 at 15:00 4 Comments 0 Likes
I've got to be honest, when I signed up to foster cats with the RSPCA I expected a greater turnover of cats!
Angel and Barney have been here since the third day of the riots - so it's been 100 days now according to the news reports (news reports about the riots that is, for some reason there have been no news items yet about my puss cats).

After a lot of consideration my flatmate and I have signed up to foster cats for the RSPCA. We can't offer a cat a permanent home right now, but with shelters overflowing (especially with kittens) we felt we wanted to help out.
Actually that's a total lie. We just wanted cats. Lots and lots of cats. I'm going to be blogging about our experience offering cats a temporary home until they find a permanent one.
OUR FIRST CATS!
When I signed up to foster I…
