Title: Complaint about Auction item
Post by: Tiggy's Mum on December 09, 2011, 22:59:17 PM
Well, the boys received their auction hamper today... all seemed well initially - pics here http://www.purrsinourhearts.co.uk/index.php/topic,39584.msg702705.html#msg702705

We seem to have a serious problem with the bed though, a health and safety issue nonetheless :naughty:

On first inspection things seemed OK

On the initial use there were no apparent issues

It was shortly after that the serious H&S issue came to light, poor Lukey was lucky to escape with his life after nearly being crushed to death in his own bed  :hairrasin:

 :rofl:  :rofl:  Brilliant.  Love the bottom two pics where Lukey is showing his fangs then appears to be rolling his eyes as he passes out.

I hope the bed I have won is as big a hit with my two.

In the first pic it looks like you also got a magic box that makes your cat disappear  :rofl:

This is not a laughing matter people  :-:

I fear Lu may be badly injured or maybe even paralysed after the apalling health and safety breach, he was in the bed when I went bed last night... he doesn't appear to have moved - here he is minutes ago.

I think that as you only have one bed and two cats you need to donate it to Amber whos all alone......either that or get buying more  :evillaugh: :evillaugh: :evillaugh:
That first pics brilliant with the disappearing cat. Actually all the pics are great

I thought not but the chink of the food bowls being filled seems to have roused him from his unconsciousness  :naughty:

Another shocking design flaw identified  :innocent: This bed is clearly going to have to be rejected under the sale of shoddy beds act 1972, poor Riley can't even keep his legs in  :shy:

I think poor Riley has deliberately left his feet out in order to catch any stray dreamies  :rofl:

I bought the very same bed about a year ago for my two and intitally Mosi was obsessed with it and slept in it every day for about 3 weeks.  He's not touched it since!  If you can wait a year, there may be a matching one in next year's auction!  ;)  Although you never know with beds - I have a cheap one on the floor at the bottom of my bed (usually covered in assorted bedroom "debris"!) and it is unsed after Jaffa used it for a while when I first got it about 5 years ago.  Yesterday I found Mosi curled up in it for the first time ever.

Same here - Theo loved his bed on the kitchen table - suddenly no interest and I can't get him back in it. Eventually stuck my nose in it and discovered SOMEONE (Tufty) had done a wee in it. Washed it and now Tufty won't get out of it so poor Theo's not only lost his bed but his tabletop as well. Re-think time  :doh:

When's the next Auction??

Oh that is so funny, am shedding tears here!

When i first saw the title of the post I thought oh how dreadful what HAS happened .....and then I saw the photos. Lu's face is an absolute picture in the last two.

I'm going to have to get one of those beds just for the fun of watching the ensuing antics as Izzy and Cash vie for it.

Classic.
