I finally found the 'clock' The date and time are in small writing underneath 'hello Slugsta', I was looking for a round clock

Me too

Thanks for that - looks like I have the Purrs clock after all.

Good news that you won't miss the end of the auction. I hope you win what you want, unless I'm bidding on it of course

It's obviously an age thing wanting a round clock.

Hubby says that I will be allowed to disappear - I spect it gives them more time to talk about me

The Purrs clock is on top Left under where it says Hello xxxx and how many messages......

Not on mine it isn't.

I have the button at the top right that will either expand or minimise the member info etc but in neither format do I see the Purrs clock. In fact, I don't think I've EVER seen the Purrs clock and I've been on Purrs since it started. It's the same on my lappy and my ipad.

Oh well. what you've never had you never miss or so they say. But now that I know it should be there...........

You utter star Gill

fixed it.

I feel like a right eejit now

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #112 on:** November 30, 2015, 13:20:13 PM »

Some where up there , is a button on right I think which will minimize the top section so must be one to bring it all back

Nicola (RockysMum) · « **Reply #111 on:** November 30, 2015, 13:15:27 PM »

Thanks Gill.
that explains why I cant see it. That box vanished from the page for me last week and hasn't come back.
It doesn't work on my work or home computers

Can everyone else see it?

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #110 on:** November 30, 2015, 13:05:59 PM »

The Purrs clock is on top Left under where it says Hello xxxx and how many messages. You have to refresh the page to get the right time

because it doesnt change automatically

It does, precisely to the second using the Purrs clock

1 sec late and your bid will not count.

I might be really dumb....but where is the purrs clock?

Dawn F · « **Reply #107 on:** November 30, 2015, 08:33:22 AM »

can't be helped slugsta - I used to always miss the end because I didn't have access at home, used to put in my best bids as late as possible and the following morning see what had happened!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #106 on:** November 29, 2015, 20:57:56 PM »

Not meaning any disrespect but surely they wouldnt miss you for 30 mins at end

Lyn (Slugsta) · « **Reply #105 on:** November 29, 2015, 18:40:13 PM »

I'm rather worried that I might not be able to be here at that time

We are scattering MIL's ashes that day, BIL and his wife will be staying with us and I don't think I will be 'allowed' to disappear to watch the auction clock!

Thank you for all the positive comments
I hope you raise lots of money to help all the Cats and Kittens that don't yet have loving homes.

maryas · « **Reply #100 on:** November 28, 2015, 16:53:05 PM »

Mishka

Join in and have fun and do what you want

I'm bidding on all sorts and don't want half of them, but it makes money for the kitties at Christmas every year and we all know that is what this is all about.

I still have to take my photos and put some items on for everyone to bid on. I kept putting it off and now I'm in panic mode

I used to be so organised.

Mary

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #99 on:** November 28, 2015, 16:46:04 PM »

from me too

PLeased you have joined and would be great if you visit after the auction too

Most important is the money we get for the needy cats and beg borrow or steal we want to make as much as possible

Tan · « **Reply #98 on:** November 28, 2015, 16:42:01 PM »

Hi hun and a very warm

to purrs forum

Please please never be sorry for joining in and bidding. Please bid all you like on anything you like. The whole point of our auctions are to help the needy cats, the ones who haven't got a family, the ones that have been through bad times and are looking for forever love. The more bids there are , the more we can help them so bid bid bid all you like.

This is for every member new or old , thanks so much for joining in for the needy babes.

I am so sorry you feel you had to write this.

JenGeorgieBob · « **Reply #97 on:** November 28, 2015, 16:41:55 PM »

Hi Mishka, welcome to the forum, glad you are taking part in the auction

it's great fun, and a great way to help the kitties! Which, as you say is the name of the game.
I hope you stick around after the auction, I have found this site to be so much help with my furry family. What princess kitty has their eye on the pink scratch post?

See you on the auction pages, and good luck, the bidding can get fierce

Mishka · « **Reply #96 on:** November 28, 2015, 15:42:49 PM »

Hello
I am new member to the Purrs forum, but I have been a guest on many occasions and have bought from the Purrs shop.
It's the first time I have decided to bid.
When I bid, I don't take a lot of notice of previous bids, not because I have a lot of money ( I don't ) but what money I do have I spend on my Cats, but because I allow for their p & p costs and put a realistic price I can afford.
I don't expect to win any of the items I have bid on, but my Cats will be very happy if I do.
And the main point of the auction is to make money and not to get a bargain so if I have spoilt it for any purrs members, that wasn't my intention, I just want to help and get some new items for my Cats.
And if I win anything, I will be happy to pay for them.

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #95 on:** November 28, 2015, 14:32:25 PM »

Looks like it will be another bumper year for kittie

Lyn (Slugsta) · « **Reply #94 on:** November 27, 2015, 21:45:28 PM »

I have a few duplicates to go up over the weekend

Tan · « **Reply #93 on:** November 27, 2015, 21:43:11 PM »

and I still got some stuff to go on tomorra

The higher the bid the more gorgeous babes can be helped and that's our ultimate goal

It's amazing the amount of fantastic items we have this year

Well done all of you wonderful peeps

Xxxxxxxx

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #92 on:** November 27, 2015, 21:34:19 PM »

The few pennies going up is fine, in the last few days it will £s. I have my eye on something, and have a top price in mind. In the final hour IT WILL BE MINE waaa haaa haa haa

hollycat · « **Reply #91 on:** November 27, 2015, 21:29:09 PM »

There are still loads of great items to have fun bidding on and another 9 days to go

Lyn (Slugsta) · « **Reply #90 on:** November 27, 2015, 21:24:46 PM »

I do understand what you are saying bunglycat. Participating in the silly bidding is great fun, even if the item is - realistically - out of my range. I also feel disappointed if I see someone has made a big bid early on.

However I have to accept that, while it is all great fun, the object of the exercise is to raise money. I can hardly complain if people push the price up beyond my pocket early on, that's what can happen with auctions. I also try to remember that the kittens might not understand the 'rules' especially for a generation who have grown up with Ebay and the like.

bunglycat · « **Reply #89 on:** November 27, 2015, 21:18:45 PM »

What I was trying to say , was its only the first week and bidding is part of the enjoyment,we know it goes mad at the end, but this has taken the enjoyment out of bidding and participating too now.

Lyn (Slugsta) · « **Reply #88 on:** November 27, 2015, 20:57:15 PM »

I tend not to pay much attention until the second week, I'm sure I am not the only one.

The silver jewellery is lovely - just a pity that I am allergic to it

Nicola (RockysMum) · « **Reply #87 on:** November 27, 2015, 20:06:57 PM »

Yup, a kitten who hasn't posted before has upped my bids massively on a couple of items too, but it's all going to a good cause so the more money the better.
I need to calm down & stop bidding on so much, I'm losing track!

A couple of my items haven't done as well as I'd thought, hoping they might get more interest soon

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #86 on:** November 27, 2015, 19:49:09 PM »

1p bidding will be gone by sunday and thats when the money goes up

maddercow · « **Reply #85 on:** November 27, 2015, 19:13:23 PM »

It is. I know bidding up by one penny and having a laugh is all great fun but it doesn't help the cats much! I don't mind being priced out of what I want, as long as every body pays up at the end

Xx

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #84 on:** November 27, 2015, 18:08:53 PM »

Its all about raising money for the kitties

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #83 on:** November 27, 2015, 18:07:23 PM »

Yes I think you will but so many lovely things

JenGeorgieBob · « **Reply #82 on:** November 27, 2015, 17:55:24 PM »

Looks like I will have my work cut out this evening adding all these new items to the spreadsheet!

some lovely stuff and I am having a great time, it's nice seeing everyone pull together and we have so many items being donated

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #81 on:** November 27, 2015, 17:40:22 PM »

Yes they have been seen

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #80 on:** November 27, 2015, 17:38:31 PM »

They are on

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #79 on:** November 27, 2015, 17:31:20 PM »

Put a good starting bid on them

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #78 on:** November 27, 2015, 17:24:35 PM »
