I know but Wikipedia said pedophile and my iPhone autocorrects it

This may seem a bit random/an awkward subject but it's something that has bugged me for a while and something people often talk about and it really makes me angry.The way people just throw around the term "pedophile". I swear there is so much paranoia etc these days that some teens will call any older person a pedophile, or at least from what I have witnessed. It's quite upsetting that we live in such a society where we can't seem to trust people and we give them these labels, and where parents may be afraid to let their children out in fear of such "pedophiles".And by definition, pedophillia is a psychiatric disorder where someone has sexual preference in pre-pubescent children, it has nothing to do with teenagers, that actually has a seperate label. Ok so many people may not know that but still, it's a serious accusation, and not something that should just be said about someone because they may simply like someone younger.Even if the people that use the word about others are just joking, I still think it's out of order, there's nothing funny or jokey about it at all.I'm not saying we should be ignorant towards it, in cases where it is actually going on, but I think over the years we have become such a nanny state that some seem to worry far too much and once they hear one thing they panic and make assumptions and false, rude, unneccessary labels.

This would be very handy for meets :DDepnding on prices of course, if it's like Towers' prices then maybe not :PI'm not too sure what to say about how much demand there is for a hotel at Thorpe, but I am sure it will be worth the money, when you think about how busy it can get there and the distances some people travel to get there! When I worked there in 2008 I had people making comments about low ride counts and needing more time etc, so in 2012 I'm sure it will be very beneficial!

A WILD MARC APPEARED!

I miss Hermione :'(We had to give her back to Cats Protection yesterday. For the past month or so she has been soiling outside the litter tray, despite having her own tray which is always clean, we've moved it away from Tango's, we've used the special stain/odour remover stuff from pet shops...but she carried on doing it (mainly weeing). We asked at the vets and they said it was probably stress from Tango. He has always been a bossy cat and not as tolerant as others, so whenever she playfully chased him etc he'd go to attack her, which was obviously stressing her out, causing her to wee on the floor. So we tried the Feliway diffuser, which we have used before for Tango and it was a miracle so we hoped it would help, but had no such luck. It either seems to work perfectly for some cats and not at all for others. And it would never change the fact that Hermione is an extra lively cat, more so than other kittens as she has possible Bengal in her, Bengal cats being a cross between a wild cat and a domestic cat! And equally, Feliway wouldn't turn change Tango. He is friendly and affectionate but bossy and short-tempered as well.So on Sunday while I was at the TPM meet, my mum phoned Cats Protection and explained everything. They said it was best to hand her back, seeing as we have tried everything and it didn't look like it was going to improve. The only chance available this week was yesterday morning, otherwise we would have had to wait for another fosterer to become available or she'd be put in a cattery, and the fosterer available yesterday is actually the lady we got her from, so even though it was very soon, it was a nicer option.It was the best decision for both Hermione and Tango but as I'm sure of you who have lost pets will know, people telling you "It's the best decision" does nothing to stop you being upset and devastated, it doesn't stop you missing them. Of course, this is nothing compared to when Poppy was put to sleep, but it is a similar feeling. I really hoped it would work out and it's been wonderful watching her grow up into a 6 month old kitten, and I hoped we'd see her grow into an adult cat and have her until the end It's gut-wrenching, because I will never know what she will be like as an adult cat, what she'll look like, how long she will live, etc. One minute I had a beautiful kitten that has made me really happy and suddenly, it's all gone.They say things come in threes...end of season, end of CCR, end of Hermione :(I suppose the positive that comes out of this is, apart from it being better for her and Tango, that we (well mostly I) can focus on Tango. He's put on weight, probably from stress/comfort eating, and thats not good for any cat but especially not as he is 13! My mum says that a lot of cats get tubby in old age...well I'm not letting that be an excuse and having a higher risk of him getting health problems. If we are just going to have one cat then I want him to live as long and as happily as possible!

That's a shame, especially as the member with that user name isn't actually called Kevin!

Good lord!I'm eating dinner soon too...

Goodbye CCR!(3 hoodies ftw! Plus I had tracky bottoms on under my jeans! Snuggleh!)

There are solutions :DFeliway diffuser! Mimics cats' facial pheromones thus making them feel calmer etc. We have one for when we moved house, and at the moment to help Hermione and Tango get along. It really works, it's incredible!We came back from the firework display and both of them were fine, not bothered at all :)You can also get the DAP diffuser for dogs which does the same thing as Feliway.

I'm sorry, I didn't intend to cause any offence with the "darling" comment, I think you've blown it way out of proportion.It just seemed a bit random to come out with what you said about TPM in your post, and perhaps it would have been better to address your issues personally to a staff member? It seems a bit rude to publicly accuse others of using rep as a bitching tool when I'm sure the majority, if not all, use it correctly. The forums have been peaceful for the past few months with very few issues, and people are getting along fine. So it's quite upsetting and shocking to see accusations of friends forming groups against others.

Ok...If you feel that way about TPM then leave or don't come on the forums?Just I'm not sure who else thinks there is a hierachy. Rep is not used as a bitching tool, please enlighten us, darling.Friends form groups against others? RLY?

Indeed.
