Missing fluffy ginger cat ***FOUND***
AT 4AM ON 5 MAY, TAI BURST IN THE BACK DOOR! HE HAS LOST 25% OF HIS BODY MASS, IS HOARSE FROM CALLING, AND VERY HUNGRY. BUT THANKFULLY UNINJURED. BEEN LOCKED IN SOMEWHERE? WHO KNOWS! PLEASE *ALWAYS CHECK THERE ARE NO CATS TRAPPED BEFORE YOU CLOSE UP A SHED, GARAGE, CARAVAN, RENTAL, OR YOUR HOME.
If you've perhaps seen a large light-GINGER quite fluffy neutered male cat, quite substantial - our boy has been missing from BURNSIDE for about 2 weeks. He seems to do this periodically, but not usually for this long. He is 7 years old and microchipped but doesn't wear a collar. Please check any sheds or garages you may have left open and then locked. He's very gentle but a bit timid about noise (quake refugee). Very cuddly and not scared of dogs. Loves (adores) small children who are gentle with him.
