Poor cat. If I could meet the people who hurt cats I would kill them.

The driver who hit Tobin should have taken him to the vet IMO how anyone could hit any family pet and fail to check if it's okay is beyond me after all it is illegal to 'hit and run' dogs or farm animals and I personally think cats should have the same rights.

Hope Tobin makes a full recovery dilli.

We just received a communication from the local epilepsy service concerning Osem Jnr#2. Inside, unexpectedly, was a cheery leaflet entitled Sudden Death in Epilepsy and a compliments slip...

Not nice! :(

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

That is awful Osem. I hope you are going to do something about such a tactless piece of post. I know such leaflets exist and that, at times, they can be extremely helpful but I don't think that they should be sent out in such seemingly random and ill-considered manner just because they have someone on their mailing list.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I could not have said it any better Jo.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

That is outrageous, I'd be on the phone tomorrow kicking up a stink about that.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

A total lack of insensitivity IMHO.:(

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Thanks everyone. I should have made clear that there was another document in the envelope for our attention. Anyway, if it wasn't just a mistake, I'm pretty sure it was well intentioned but an error of judgement, nonetheless, by someone we do in fact know. I'm really not sure how best to deal with it - I'd hate anyone else to receive one in the same manner out of the blue... :confused:

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

This is terrible receiving this Osem, No consideration at all,

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

If you know the person especially, then talking it over, be it on the phone or in person would be best.

Yes, I'm sure the information given was valid, but leaflets should be a compliment to, not a replacement to being cared for in a personal manner. If someone had sat you down and said "I know this is very rare, but I think it's best that you know..." I'm guessing it wouldn't have been a bad thing, despite the subject matter?

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

id tell them ASAP - others may not be able to handle it as well as you seem to be :tu:

Still, that's just my 2p and all.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Yup, I think I'll have a chat with the person concerned and just make the point that we'd have preferred to deal with the subject in person. It may seem odd but, although we know epileptic seizures can be fatal, we'd never really imagined it may happen to our lad and it's not a subject which has come up during the many consultations we've had over the years. He's so fit and strong it's hard to imagine him succumbing to anything and the thought that he might, if his condition were to worsen, is sobering. He's a gift in so many ways! :(

Our network server's at work where updated.

So of course everything is working perfectly, NOT.

I can see old email's but not send and receive any.

Plus the network is down so so printer's.

So bugger all has been done.
