Missing cat Chester
Our beautiful boy Chester is still missing from Ranara Court and we are losing hope. If he's locked in somewhere he will be starving by now, as he was last seen on Monday 21 June. If you live in the Park Road-Batt St-College St area or nearby, please, please check your property - and your neighbours' if they are away. He doesn't usually go near the road, but if he has been killed some how, it would be far better to know than to imagine. He's quite a large cat and black and white, with a black 'mask' effect on his face. Ph 027 2424-112 or 06 3572116.
