For various reasons, I abhor cats. I know all cats are individuals and have their own personalities and that some cats will never catch a bird in their lives...but some are just vicious little furballs.

We have a cat which ignores birds but has an appetite for frogs. I've tried my best to provide frogs with good cover in the garden and to deter the cat from the pond area, but she still manages to get them. Cats are also considered a garden pest by some gardeners for the havoc they can wreak in beds.

How do you feel about cats?

I love my wee cat. I've had her for 18 yrs. She will probably have to be put to sleep cos she has a growth on her jaw by the end of the week. Everywhere I go to distract myself I'm seeing things about cats!!

Some cats are annoying. Some people are annoying. I don't judge all people on the basis of just the annoying ones though. So I will say that I love cats.

I had a lovely cat when I was younger. He didn't tend to catch birds really and he was always playful and warm.

I'm with Cindy on this one, some cats are lovely, some aren't.

My sister has just got a kitten, who is very cute. She's also very naughty, but her cuteness almost makes up for that!

This is her, you can't see it here but her nose is half pink and half white! :)

Nice pictures people.

Personally, I like cats and despise dogs. Dogs are needy, desperate, cringy and terrified of losing their place in the "pack" - all the while with their eye on the main chance to improve their place in the pack by getting rid of the next highest person in it. Thats why so many "perfectly nice" dogs bite children whenever they get the chance, because usually they are in the pack order just below the children. People think they are loyal and affectionate - they aren't, they SHOW loyalty and affection for the reasons I just said, because they are terrified that if they don't, they'll get thrown out of the pack. If a dog shows you affection, its because he thinks he has to.

Cats on the other hand don't give a toss. They want you to give them their food, but they know damn well that if you don't, they can get it elsewhere. They are independant and clever. If a cat shows you affection, there is only one reason for it - because it WANTS to. I'm not so happy about the predatory habits, but cats do a lot less damage to wildlife than people, and at the end of the day a predator is a predator and always will be.

I have two cats - and a dog.

      It's made it into the Daily Mail as another reason to bash the station. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13417631/bbc-radio-2-facebook-tiktok-instagram.html

      I expect that the axing of Chill Out Anthems may be related to the decommissioning and shutfdown of Radio 1 Relax. I assume soon BBC could announce or make official when it’s going to be shutdown

      Next Radio 1 boss

      By R1 Insider · Posted

      The next RAJAR will be putting a lot of pressure on Aled. Will his decisions over Danny Beard and Jamie Laing and to lose Jordan North pay off? If not, it is likely bosses will be looking for his successor.  I am interested to know what fans of the station think?  Ian Chaloner who worked for Greg, Scott and Grimny before rising through the ranks must stand a chance. He is now mainstream editor.  An outsider choice but Greg's former producer Chris Sawyer would be great. He has the creativity and has held the ship well on breakfast. Although I know he is no longer with them.

      Could this be similar to what Arielle Free did in Covid on Weekend Early Breakfast?

      By TMD_24 · Posted

      Greg is doing Breakfast from 7am-11am on 23rd May which is a thirty minute extension of his usual Friday show and consistent with Big Weekend timings. Also it looks like from the 1st June, Radio 1 Chillout Anthems at 4am is being replaced by Radio 1 Anthems with Maia Beth and will also air at the same time on a Sunday.

      I mean I've been growing our engagement on Facebook in my department, there's still an untapped audience there. Also, as you alude to, the number of community groups has grown a lot since lockdown. I'd love to hear more about their thinking. If this had been Radio 1's strategy I don't think anyone would have disagreed.

      I think they must’ve been slowly killing of their social media presence I know for Radio 2 and 6 they do have dedicated unofficial social media groups so there is an audience. All Request Friday and features like that has a place on social media as can get requests via comment sections but I think Facebook struggles to know what it is these days.

      I just think it's more about what they're doing. If all you've got is a DJ dancing to Beyonce's latest hit for thirty seconds or Sara Cox reading out the All Request Friday number in a funny way it's not really what Facebook prioritises. I think it's great that studio interaction, but it does lend itself to Instagram and TikTok more. But I honestly believe there is a place for Facebook with the Radio 2 audience. The trouble is Radio 2 have barely used Facebook for the last year so there doesn't seem to have been a strategy there.

      Agree, all I'd see on x was medical professionals from other health trusts having a very carefully worded pop at each other, mixed in with a clip of jeremy vine with a camera on his helmet, a very strange place indeed! I imagine they have some data to back it up, but is the r2 audience really using tiktok?

      I get not putting resources into X which these days is a strange mix of angry political debate and adult content only. But you'd think Facebook was still the most popular social channel amongst Radio 2 audiences.

      Radio 2 seem to have decided that their strategy is just short video, so it does probably make sense with Instagram and TikTok. But I find it hard to believe there's not longer form content that wouldn't suit Facebook better.

      These late announcements are so lacklustre. It's not quite like the time they announced Harry Styles last minute!

      Probably got fed up of the usual moaning bastards all over it, asking for Ken Bruce and Jimmy Young back on air.

      Think it may have been better to include Radio 1 in this and 1 xtra ultimately focus on boosting a BBC Sounds social media to bring the multi-generational content marketed to a broader audience through one singular channel and having a separate social brand skewed to younger audiences maybe they should consider just having a @BBC @BBCSounds  @BBCSport @BBCNews @BBCFresh (youth brand) social media acounts national.
