We have been letting them in, but now we have the pup i am struggling to manage her with out two cats and simply cant cope with two more.
My Oh has spoken to her as she was his friend first and told her we had found a cats shelter that was willing to take them, he told her she was being cruel and that the cats had no life. The shelter insisted quite rightly on her ringing them and she didn't.

I think I should count food poisoning, as he died of a surfeit of lampreys. No autopsies back then! I don't know why, but I've always found that expression rather funny!

Yes, that's why I remember it - lampreys are strange looking things and I can't imagine eating them.
