Injured Orange and White Cat

Janie from Merrilands

Hi All,
I found an orange and white cat trapped in a plastic mesh fence and standard pole fence in the bush track between bottom of Karina Road and Heta Road.
I phoned my husband to bring scissors so I could cut the tangled fencing from his trapped legs.

I sat waiting for my husband for 20 minutes, cradling the cold and very stressed cat in my arms, trying to soothe it. I didn't want to check to turn it over to see if it was male or female due to how distressed it was with any movement.

Once I managed to cut the white plastic standard pole off, and then managed to get most of the plastic webbing off, the cat did an almighty vigorous squirm, and shot out of my arms, and ran across the little wooden bridge at the bottom of Smith street, and into one of the residential properties there. I tried to follow, but it disappeared. I will post photos of the cat, hoping someone will recognise it. It had no collar. I am sure it will need a visit to the Vet, despite lockdown levels. The cat still has plastic webbing tangled in its 2 rear legs, low down near the feet, that I hadn't quite managed to remove. My name is Janie ph 027 60 88 379, if anyone needs further info.
