Title: Rescue in Essex Area - eBay cat carrier cage for 99p!
Post by: Cheesecat on February 07, 2007, 12:53:08 PM
Hey guys,

just wondering if anyone fancied buying this for a rescue (or themselves) in Essex area.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120083134964

I would buy it myself but I cant go all the way to collect it!

Just thought it was a bargain :)

I agree a bargain, especially if there is no postage involved.

I am quite tempted to buy it for myself, even with postage its a small bargain :)

Plus, Gerti and Cheese feel better about travelling when its less enclosed like a normal carrier  ;D

I was in Lidl yesterday and they had a great cat carrier. I was huge - would take 2 cats or a small dog easily. It has a tubular frame and material around the frame with mesh so they can see out. It also has a tray in the bottom for accidents - I borrowed on of the wire ones from a friend recently and they aren't that big - also if the cat has an accident, there is nothing to carch it - hopefully a towel would soak it up?

Anyway, the lidl one is £15.00 - mI wouls buy one if I hadn't recently bought one from PAH

Why does our Lidl never have anything that good?!

I went in for the cat scratchpost/bed offers and there was nothing!!

Mark, I bought one of those from our Lidl recently(the blue one :)) and then saw a smaller version in a pet shop for £40!

They really looked well made to me - I love Lidl!
I've got bathmats that weigh a ton and have even boil washed then a few times and they look new - they were £2.99 in Lidl about 8 years ago!
I had some marks on the walls that guests had made and I was quoted £624.00 to repaint 2 rooms - actually 3 needed doing so there was no way - I bought some "magic sponges" in lidl for 79p for 2 yesterday and the marks have gone!! (just as well as I am being inspected next week!)
