Oh Ron, wishing you the very best.  I know how hard it will be for you being away from home and your beloved cats companions.  Sending every good wish for you.

would be a huge loss to the area if the charity is lost, I know Ron steps in where so many others can't and it is hard to contemplate what will happen without Lost Cats Brighton

not sure if anyone is local but


On behalf of Ron’s family, Lost Cats Brighton would like to announce that Ron’s funeral will be held at 3pm on Wednesday 25th January 2017, at Woodvale Crematorium. And then afterwards at the Nevill Pub, on Nevill Road in Hove. http://www.thenevill.co.uk

All welcome.

To help with preparations it would be useful to have an indication of numbers, so if you intend to come perhaps you can let us know below.

Thanks to everyone for your support.

I would attend, but OH has his care review next Wednesday afternoon and I can't really miss it. :'(, I would like to go and pay my respects. It would be the least and last thing I could do for Ron.

This is great news, Dawn.  Those cats are beautiful.  They did snow dogs up here last year, and our firm sponsored one.  They were all sold off for Charity.  This will be so good for Ron's legacy. :)

OH I LOVE THE SNOW CATS AND HOPE THEY RAISE LOADS OF MONEY FOR LOST CATS AS IT WOULD BE GREAT IF THEY COULD CARRY ON RONS WORK.

I like Mauser but Mr. Frosty is my favourite.  It's the boots that do it.  ;D. I Some of the names made me laugh, like Pablo Picatto.  :rofl: I hope they raise lots of money.
Title: Re: Lost Cats Brighton - Ron
Post by: Judecat (Paula) on June 07, 2017, 14:18:42 PM
Doodle & Blue and Marcie for me. Do I foresee  a big bidding war going on if we are representative of the people who will be bidding? That would be wonderful for Lost Cats Brighton.
Title: Re: Lost Cats Brighton - Ron
Post by: Dawn F on June 07, 2017, 14:25:30 PM
I really hope so, thought you'd like mauser!  no idea how much they will get but everything helps and having someone off the telly doing the auction can't hurt (not that I know who he is lol!)

Post by: Judecat (Paula) on June 07, 2017, 17:57:02 PM
There is a Peter James police cat too. With a signed book, I expect that will go well. ;D
