The old mother hen

Bless her she's being rehomed due to the local sanctuary being taken over by the council for new house developments

[Budgie1954]

Funny

[Hidden in reply to Budgie1954]

She's quite a character would have homed her myself but doing the dog kennels so not fair to her xx

[skischool]

Will the council reserve accommodation for mother hen on the new complex,perhaps a one bed roomed coop with a small run,is she on chicken benefits? xx perhaps she will get hen per cent discount lol x

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

Oh skis don't be so silly lol she can share your accommodation and we can get a pecking order in place it's really quite sad to be honest ....poor old girl nobody wants her cause she's a heckler so she would keep you in place xxx

[skischool in reply to Hidden]

you have just described yourself to a tee,but i still love ya xx

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

And do you mean top of the pecking order xx

[skischool in reply to Hidden]

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

[2greys in reply to skischool]

You have to be yoking, the council shelling out! No doubt she will be all white, somebody will give her a home.

[Hidden in reply to 2greys]

[2greys in reply to Hidden]

Eggsactly.

[Hidden in reply to 2greys]

😁😁😁😁😁

[Magpuss]

There's plenty of room for her in my garden Angie, she might even help to keep the new neighbours cats in order.🙀🐔🐓

[Hidden in reply to Magpuss]

Lol I'm sure she can give peck a few magpuss you having cat problems xxx

[Magpuss in reply to Hidden]

My cats having problems with two of the three new cat neighbours, the gardens not her own anymore, these two pesky puss cats hide in the shrubbery then attack her from behind. She's especially vulnerable when coming back inside through the cat flap and that's when usually pounce. It's got to be such a regular thing that she doesn't want to go out now so I've had to reinstate a litter tray in the utility room. Not ideal.

[Hidden in reply to Magpuss]

Awww that's not nice she must be scared bless her xxx

[Ergendl in reply to Magpuss]

I've used a pump action water pistol on the black cat that bullies my tabby Tinker and once attacked me - I still have the scars on my right shoulder.

[Hidden in reply to Ergendl]

I know it's not funny but iv just had visions of magpuss standing behind the bushes water pistol in hand waiting for the pesky cats 🐺🐺 lol xxx

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Ergendl that's not good xx

[Magpuss in reply to Hidden]

Don't laugh but I have stood behind the door armed with my spray bottle, waiting for a tabby head to pop through the cat flap - little so and so has been too bloomin' quick for for me to get more than a sprinkle on him - so far! The battle is ongoing...........!🙀😾😼

[Hidden in reply to Magpuss]

Oh magpuss I'm cryin at the livley and lovley vision of it all 🐺🐺🐺

[Magpuss in reply to Ergendl]

Ooo that sounds like a seriously antisocial moggy - at least our offending feline has the decency to run off when I appear.

[Ergendl in reply to Magpuss]

It runs now when it sees me, but only as far as the other side of the fence - hence the pump action water pistol. It must be quite funny seeing two 60+ year olds toting a large garish plastic gun in the back garden and firing it across the street.

[Magpuss in reply to Ergendl]

Gives the neighbours a laugh I suppose😊

[Ergendl in reply to Magpuss]

Definitely.

[sassy59]

Hope she finds a new home soon. Xxxx

[Hidden in reply to sassy59]

I hope so sassy poor old girl xx

[Ktomoph_]

[skischool in reply to Ktomoph_]

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

White bits are the best on a bird lol can't deal with crackling or in this case cackling lol x

[Hidden in reply to Ktomoph_]

Nice to cheer somone up I think we are responsible for the last time you laughed ktomoph xxx

[Ktomoph_ in reply to Hidden]

[tillie]

Ktomoph_ have to admit he speaks for me on last reply. Brilliant everyone of you.

[Hidden]

Poor old girl bless her. Majt 😢 Xx

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

[Hidden]

It is sad hope she finds kindness from someone else. 😊 Xx

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

[Hidden]

You can only do your best. I'm the same I would be feeding them to. Majt Xx
