While walking through a sainsbury's carpark yesterday I saw a silver puma in a bad state. The rear bumper had been shunted, it had scratches all down the side and the car was filthy. Then it occured to me. Open up a place where abandoned or neglected puma's can be nursed back to full health and then set free back into the wild.

I've got an idea to simply move into a neighbouring farmers field and just "aquire" it. I'm pretty sure the farmer will just donate the field after he's calmed down and we've explain the reason. All I need is a band of determined, passionate and slightly unhinged individuals.

I agree, it is sad to see a Puma in an unloved state. It's such a great little car and it doesn't take much effort to keep it looking good,

I'm with ya! And i've spotted another car today to put next to the poor silver one.

A Melina blue 1.4 puma, built 10-2000, a gazillion scratches on the left side, more on the rear bumper, and fossilized flies on the front bumper + bonnet. Car probably never had a wash since 2000.

Poor cat, somebody should adopt it

And we could put big collecting bins at the entrance to Halfords and service stations for people to donate some oil, or some Kurust for them

Naw, that's just a big, expensive vets.

We are talking about somewhere for the stray kitties here.

Think Wood Green Animal Shelter, PDSA, etc etc

had a silver kat driving beside me on the parkway - whoever it is - shame on you - they had obviously spent money on a personalised reg but there was a big dent on the passenger side and loads of rust on the wheel arches and back quarter plus the wheels looked quite kerbed - ouch

poor kitty

come up and see me...make me smile :wink:

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand - strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO -What a Ride!:D
