Bring back Ted

Reporter Community News

Bring back Ted. That is the message from Susan McNair who runs the Kitten Inn in Lower Hutt. Ted was last seen on Wednesday November 17, asleep in her back garden. By Thursday morning he had vanished and McNair is convinced he has been stolen.
"My place is like Fort Knox, there are two gates and there is no way he could have got out without assistance."
She is unsure why some one would want to steal a blind cat but she says it is second time, she has had a blind cat stolen.
An extensive search in the neighbourhood has not located him and she says being in an area that he does not know, will be scary.
Ted also suffers from a heart murmur and the stress will be making it worse, she says.
The Kitten Inn rehouses cats and kittens, with volunteers taking taking the kittens until a new owner can be found.
"If someone has taken him please return him, we love and miss him very much. No questions will be asked, we just want him back.
If you have any information that might lead to Teds return please call 5651193
