all part of the planned hunt. lol

Took me a while to think of the cat related sentence that peeps couldn't just guess without going through 95% of the hunt clues ie if it was a well know saying you could prob guess it without doing the hunt.

Think I'm on the right track now, went wrong in the beginning so it made no sense at all

Tan · « **Reply #33 on:** October 05, 2010, 10:45:05 AM »

Yeap if it's all gobbledgook or no clue in the thread (except last one) then they in wrong order.

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #32 on:** October 04, 2010, 15:59:13 PM »

Am confused

not hard I will admit

Should there be a clue in each of the threads where you find an answer?

Edited as I realise I have got clues in wrong order - time to start again

FUN!!!! It was stressful. After clue four I decided I had to stop crying and pull myself together!!

I am cruel aint i

Tan · « **Reply #30 on:** October 02, 2010, 13:33:02 PM »

Sounds like some are easy some are hard

The section to look for the thread is in each clue, then have a look at the rest of the clue to find the thread in that section mainly in title of thread but you may have to go into a thread to get the right cats name on some clues

All threads will be on the 1st page.

If ya were like me when posting them, i spent ages reading the threads as well

It took me an absolute aaaaaaage to do it. I finsihed up with a sentence of gobbledook at which point I realised I had gone wrong very early on as I'd stumbled across the clues in the wrong order

I will be selling the answer at £1 a go (JOKE OF COURSE )

I have only done a few but already know I have made same mistake

Good fun though

Teresa Pawcats · « **Reply #16 on:** September 26, 2010, 08:27:45 AM »

Sorry Helen I hate that bump, couldnt you find something mpore in keeping with Purrs

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #15 on:** September 25, 2010, 19:57:24 PM »

Just a little

for this

Lots of wannabe pirate treasure hunters are joining up - http://www.purrsinourhearts.co.uk/index.php/topic,34331.msg611473.html#msg611473

Anyone else?

Basically you donate a much needed fiver (via Paypal, cheque or bank transfer) which goes to the independent rescues, Tan will give a clue to start the treasure hunt off and then you get a week to find the clues at your leisure. All treasure hunters who give the correct answer go in the Purrs hat and the treasure hunter who's name is picked out wins a stash of cat goodies

This is such a great idea Tan and a reason why it is great to be a member of this forum. It is such a good plce to share stories about your cats and hear other members cat stories. However the banner at the top says everything about the site "Supporting UK Cat Rescue" and for those of us are unable to take on another cat cos our current cats would hate it, or if like me you don't have a bottomless bank balance, it is hard to commit a lot of cash, so things like the prize draw and the treasure hunt are wonderful ways for us to contribute to the wonderful work of the rescues. There isn'tt a day on this site my heart strings aren't pulled by either the pics of the cats needing homes or what the rescuers go through.

Thanks Si

Ah-ha me hearties

Auntie Tan, the Queen of Purrs, has had this great idea for a treasure hunt... the only thing missing is contestants

Now that's where YOU come in

The long and short of it is that your Mum's or Dad's donate a fiver which goes directly to cat rescue where it's needed most. Your Mum or Dad then gets to have a go at a feline treasure hunt and win great prizes (for us cats of course

).

So.... what are you waiting for? Tell your human they can donate via paypal (button at the bottom of the page) or if they prefer cheque of bank transfer - contact Tan, Queen of Purrs, for details how to donate via cheque or bank transfer
