Comments on: Schrödinger, Shoreditch Church Cat https://spitalfieldslife.com/2016/01/18/schrodinger-shoreditch-church-cat/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Fri, 22 Jan 2016 02:05:33 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0.2 By: John https://spitalfieldslife.com/2016/01/18/schrodinger-shoreditch-church-cat/#comment-1075013 Fri, 22 Jan 2016 02:05:33 +0000 http://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=142296#comment-1075013 Good job Shrodingner! I am of the opinion that the good work that cats do to keep rats in absence goes largely unappreciated. What if we were to turn that task over to dogs? No, no, it is the cat who intervened during the Middle Ages, to be the unsung hero that helped quell the raging plague. But does it ever get it’s proper credit for that important task? Not likely. Generally it’s dogs that hog all the glory as ‘man’s best friend’.

Thanks for the great blog…

They need affection and companionship as strongly as any creature. I feel for that feral cat; he looks lonely and we can tell from what you say he is sometimes starving. He needs a home and a human friend to be close too. What seems mystery is his instinctive behavior to stay safe is to keep away from creatures most of whom could easily kill him.

I didn’t realize you had so many cat blogs. I shall read them across today.

Anyhow, name to one side Schrodinger, I am uplifted by your presence.

I thought there was a mystery solved before doing some careful back and forth comparisons and determined they are not the same cat.

Well done Schrodinger, and well done verger.
