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.
