Cat Run Pannels - Can anyone use some

[Sam (Fussy_Furball)]

I'm sure you can hire a "Man with a Van" ... now there's an offer not to be sniffed at!    I wouldn't recommend a roof rack ... they are big panels and would be quite heavy and cumbersome.  These links might help (I did a search on man with a van manchester)

Depending where you are - you can hire a van for half a day quite cheap

I drive with hand controls, alas... but I'll look into hiring, cheers Ela.

are roof racks expensive? Are they the sort of thing you can borrow from people

You can hire them from some firms

[Beccles]

Ooo... roof rack... there's a thought.

[Bazsmum]

Could you not get a roof rack and keep off the motorway's? Sounds a very good offer 

Oh and take someone with you to fix em to it 

[Beccles]

Hmmm... yes 6' might be a problem... damn, I really want to get a run set up for my puds.

Oh well 

[sheryl]

They might be a bit big for a Micra, I would say that the biggest ones are probably 6". 
Personal use is fine, just seems a shame to let them end up on a skip

[Beccles]

If no rescue wants them then I'd love them - but I must make it clear it's for 'personal use' for my own cats, so I'd rather a rescue took them if anyone can make use.

I'd be happy to help with transport from Lincs back up towards Manchester anywhere, assuming they fit in my Micra.

[Millys Mum]

May be best to phone all the rescues in your area, they would be useful for rabbits & birds aswell 

[sheryl]

It would be such a shame to see them go to waste

[Quincycat]

Could really have made good use of them, pity you are over 400 miles away.

Hi, my neighbour who died recently (we are looking after Flash and Blackie whilst "lady friend" sorts herself) has got loads of what I would call run panels in his back garden there is even a big roof and "lady friend" has said that we can take then if we want or they are going on a skip - i though maybe one of te rescues could use them to build a cat run.

They would need to be colleted from nr Grantham Lincs and some of the panels are large.  If anyone can use them I will get OH to move them into our garden so they dont get trown out
