Is she deaf? Most white cats are. Our one used to go nuts on firework night, chasing up and down the garden after the bright lights because she couldn't hear the bangs.

Pure white cats are prone to skin cancer, my neighbour had one, it got skin cancer, due to lack of melanin... but died well after he did, of testicular cancer which made him deaf after spreading to his brain. He was dead six months after moving in, shortly after his left cochlea was augmented with an electronic implant. I didn't ask if it had line-out. I hated the cunt because his so called "friendly" and massive "traumatised" rescue dog kept attacking my cats, but despite that loaned him an electric oil heater when his gas central heating packed up in winter. Wanker denied it, after seeing it and my having a right go at him. Biggest killers of dogs is road traffic and dogs, in that order.

Her hearing is fine, already tried the 'shaking dry food box' before I put it out and she hears it from other end of flat and comes running. Even when apparently asleep.

She had a full heavy duty private medical (twice!) before arriving in UK and has a full medical record from UAE with no issues. She is a doll face so won't have the problems that Muffin who was peak face had with the tear ducts etc.

Tricky to get skin cancer if you always lived indoors.

My 'do-gooding' neighbour had a massive rescue dog, bit most of close and put me in casualty, I hate most dogs these days almost as much as I despise their owners....

The government guidelines state that EAPCs "must have a maximum power output of 250 watts” and bikes should be labelled as such. This means that the continuous rated power should be no more than 250 watts.

The BBC know they've already lost the argument, if they have to explain the fucking stupid comment made, via reply to a complaint, expanding using words not originally used in the programme, delivered by perpetutally peturbed looking cabbage patch doll looking mutherfucker afflicted with ADHD, which is exactly the worst type of cabbage patch doll viewers need being involved with the organisation and presentation of a TV programme about ebikes requiring ATTENTION TO DETAIL!!!!!!!!!!!

“E-bikes are not illegal”: BBC hit with more complaints about “misleading and damaging” Panorama e-bike episode, as cycle shop owner says: “Finding a wolf in sheep’s clothing should not be a reason to attack sheep”

“The safety of road users is the most important thing, but highlighting danger should not involve the misrepresentation of an important and fast-growing sector increasing the amount of healthy, eco-friendly travel”

The Panorama program should have started with the fact that the vast majority of e-bikes are road legal.

Do you have the figures to support that claim?

Most of the e-bikes that I see in the UK look illegal with motors the diameter of dinner plates & batteries held together with gaffer tape.
