Ta. Things were easier growing up in Australia. Back then, we had one yoghurt and it was called Ski. And it was pronounced Ski.

Jeez. I can't even pronounce skyr. Isn't that what the Charmed Ones used to do?

So good I posted it twice. And you thanked me twice. Bless.

Here we go. Google is my friend.

It is. It's a massive problem. Of course, it was worse back in '08 when everything crashed and people were doing the midnight flit to escape debt [and worse].

And what [shudder] is going to happen when certain hell-bound types decide that the train is a perfectly good place in which to dump their no-longer-wanted pets?

Ha ha! Did you read the girls' list?

I can't give you anything back for those names bar the pinkie swear that I'm grinning maniacally.
