Lives beyond the tunnel at the end of the platform I believe.
Title: Re: Hector, the Redruth Station cat Post by: The Tall Controller on September 04, 2014, 23:23:15 He's a lovely, fussy cat. It's a shame he doesn't like being picked up!
We have a pet squirrel at Bodmin Parkway. We call him squiggle!

If you can provide a picture of Squiggle, Rob T, I'll be delighted to give him a topic of his own, too! ;) :D ;D Title: Re: Hector, the Redruth Station cat Post by: LiskeardRich on September 04, 2014, 23:58:06 We have a pet squirrel at Bodmin Parkway.

If you can provide a picture of Squiggle, Rob T, I'll be delighted to give him a topic of his own, too! ;) :D ;D And ideally rob call the local paper, and get squirrel it's own facebook page, I know nothing happens here but was the West Briton really so desperate for news to need a feature about a cat who goes and hangs out at the local station..

Does this cat live there? Or is it just very friendly? First time I've come across this is there more around the country
Title: Re: Hector, the Redruth Station cat Post by: JayMac on March 29, 2015, 17:42:52 That'd be Hector. He already has his own topic on the forum as well as a Facebook page.
