HRFL

I'm sorry to report that yes, indeed, I do strongly believe that HRFL
Tiger has gone to the Rainbow Bridge to join Sir William and my dear
darlings, Polly, Daisy, Deri-dog and Petra-dog.

There is no way that he was shot by a farmer - my OH certainly
wouldn't shoot him, quite apart from the fact he knows what Tiger
means to me, he adores cats, the game-keeper, Matt, was aware of who
he is/was (and knew what he looked like) and is always on the look out
for him and the other cats when he is around. The 2 other farmers in
the village/area do not own guns and they wouldn't shoot cats anyway.

Matt reported to my OH seeing lampers poaching in fields near our farm
house the night HRFL went missing. We have a huge problem with Pikeys
and their lurchers hare coursing illegally at night and we also have
strong evidence that cats from the village have gone missing in
similar circumstances before. I am hoping against hope that I am
wrong, but deep down my heart is telling me that I'm not.

My heart is breaking - even though I am hoping I am wrong, I know I'm
not.

Helen, I'm so sorry. I do hope you're wrong, but I also hope you will also
find some solace by knowing that you have HRFL the best life possible.

Helen, I'm sorry, but between me being from the US and knowing nothing about
farming, I have no idea what you think happened. Could you, or someone
familiar with this answer a few questions? Who is"OH"? What are "lampers"?
What are "Pikers"? What are "lurchers" and "hare coursing"?

Pllease forgive me if this is adding to your pain, I'd never want to do
that, but I'd like to know what's happened or what you think has happened.

CN,== I'm just guessing on this but am curious to see if I am right. OH
Other half? Piker == some one who isn't willing to pay for things.
Lurchers, I know are dogs and hare coursing is hunting rabbits at night.
If this is what happened to Tiger, I am putting my curse on them
forever. MLB

Oh God, I was wrong, I didn't want to know - Helen, I am SO, SO sorry. I
hope whoever did this rots in the lowest level of hell for all eternity.
Anyone who could do such a thing is beyond redemption.

I am so sorry. I also hope you're wrong, but when you know there was
a dangerous situation out there, there's a chance something happened
to him. If he's gone, I hope he went quickly.

Pikeys are sometimes gypsies, sometimes just countryside criminals,
hare coursing is using dogs to hunt hares (not rabbits), which is
illegal in the UK. Lamping is going out at night to hunt using lights,
the reflection shows up the prey animal's eyes which gives the poacher
a clue where to shoot. Unfortunately a lot of cats in all kinds of
areas get caught up in illegal hunting activities, one that we rehomed
in an urban location was caught in a snare set near a railway line
(he's recovering, thankfully). I'm so sorry Helen, Tiger deserved
better than this. May the hunters get all that they deserve.

OMG, that would be so *awful*! I hope that your suspicions do turn
