Default cat sanctuary in Rome

The BBC just had a story about this (most of its content is in a video
which I can't watch on this machine). Here is the homepage for the
sanctuary itself:

Oh... I tried to watch one of the videos and it made me so sad I had to
stop. Kenneth and Penelope... she a three legged cat and him her
protector. She's gone to the Bridge and he misses her. It was too sad
to watch.

I can't watch it either. Italy really needs a cat sanctuary. Greece,
too. Many many ferals and strays.

You say you can't watch videos on your machine and I notice you have a
demon account. I'm curious as to what computer you have.


I can watch most videos, but not BBC ones. They require a version of
Flash that doesn't run on MacOS 10.4.11 (Tiger) which is the latest
OS I can run on this PPC machine (without throwing away my investment
in Classic MacOS software - OS versions after Tiger disable it all).

Often I'll use the BBC to pick up the headlines and then go to some
other news service to watch any relevant video. With a story like
the Australian floods, the Australian media will have better coverage
anyway.

There may be some way of spoofing the BBC into thinking I've got the
version of Flash they want, but watching their video snippets isn't
that important to me.
