I have added Boris and Katya to the map ( one pic for both) but can't find them on the map!

 

[Frazzled]

I'm not really sure what I think - but I love the name Catography, very witty!

 

[Flying Pigs]

I can see Boris and Katya on the map now. It is quite funny to look at the other cats' pictures and read about them. There isn't a moderator I don't think as I have read a couple of risque ones. Love the names people have chosen for their cats.

 

[Frazzled]

Where did you find it FP? I can't see anything on London Zoo site?

CANCEL - Just seen it!!

On the left hand side there is a link there is a recommendations box it says Cat Survey - a map of London cats. You do not go onto Facebook or anything so don't worry about the bit about logging in. You can then see the map.Click on 'add your cat to the survey.In the banner at the top of the page is a blue box 'add your cat'- ignore the bit on this page on the left hand side about find a cat. Complete the details on the right hand side for your cat. When you have submitted your form you will get an e-mail with a link to your cat. To find Boris and Katya use the find your cat on the left handside and put Boris's name in. At the moment this will bring up 2 cats called Boris - the picture I have posted is of both of them so you can see which is my Boris. You can simply click on other cats on the map to find out about them. Hope this helps! If you get stuck , let me know.

Yeah! finally got there today, their website is unbelievably slow for me. Found Boris and Katya, his markings are really showing now.

Obviously Boris is a fairly unusual name, only two so far in the UK, couple in South America - poor puddies living in Iceland!

I would love some of the other Shopping Telly cats to on the map so we can see where we all are.

Tried to register His Nibs FP but gave up after five attempts - never even got as far as his colouring.

 

[SparklyBarbs]

Do they do Northern Ireland ??

 

[Flying Pigs]

It's supposed to be London, but it's all over the world Barbs.Not many in Ireland yet - Kringle and Star from Dublin, Sparta from Tullamore there's Mushu from Swaziland, Mia Litla from Iceland. There are cats from Canada, Japan, South America, New Zealand, all over Europe, Saudi Arabia, South America to name but a few. It will take me a while to look at them all! It's fantastic, I absolutely love it , it's so crazy!

 

[Disenchanted]

Ooops! Seems I was doing something horribly wrong - no surprise there.....

His Nibs is now on the Cat Map.

i must be being thick because i can see the article but not a link to the map - and i'm not going back there because having scanned the page looking, i saw things i'd rather not see

 

[Flying Pigs]

I'll see if I can do a direct link from the page later Janie.

[Flying Pigs]

Fab Janie. Did you find any interesting cats? I still love the Richard Parker tiger.

 

[janie]
