Timujin2 Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 A dog and cat were found abandoned on nb cockney rose moored at saxelby, Lincs, by me on Saturday. The boat was ankle deep in faeces and I couldn't breathe for the stench of urine. Animals both starving and skeleton thin. RSPCA informed, pretty bloody useless. If anyone knows the owner of this boat then give them a kick where it hurts from me. Dog taken to safety but cat still there as far as I know.

If we add "in this particular case" it may be justified. Mac has written what I was thinking; perhaps Sean, despairing of ever getting the boat shipshape again, sold it. I didn't check how long ago the news item happened. Oh, thank you Tim for this report and for your caring action, and welcome to CWDF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've called the RSPCA twice now about horses left tethered in canal side fields with no shelter. The first time I got a call back telling me what action they had taken, the second time a call back telling me to phone their HQ rather than local branch.

Now that does take some fathoming. Best not to speculate I suppose; either the whole story will eventually be revealed, or else we'll be none the wiser.

kawaton Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 No mention of a cat in that report. Perhaps the pussycat had left the owl, turned his back on the sea and was eloping with the dog to live on the canals...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty40s Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 Rescued dog, weeks of faeces on floor and RSPCA alerted so owner moved it a bit and invents joyride story to blame mess on others and avoid animal neglect charges. ..???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is strange, there was a bit more on Look North tonight, they filmed on the boat, yes it's been quite well trashed, but there was no mention of faeces on the floor, or any mention of the smell. There are, however, photos of the boat going through Lincoln, which one would assume are now with the police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJPHG Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) As far as I can see there are 2 nb's registered under the name Cockney Rose. CRT No's 70697 and 515094. Could the confusion because the OP's post is about one and the media story is about the other. One hell of a coincidence though that both would be in the same area. Another thought (the cynic in me) is that the OP might be trolling the forum? New member based supposedly on the other side of the counrty, strange topic to kick off with, lots of conflicting reports.... Just a thought Edited April 17, 2018 by JJPHG Can't spell!!
