Rizzo a 3yr old entire but chipped DSH female
Black and White and on one rear leg has a black stripe
Wearing a collar when she went missing from the area of Park Crescent...
Hello Sue!
Its a miracle but we have found our cat after the longest month of our life, she was found nearly half a mile a way completly lost and begginig for food from a kind lady who saw her on a local missing cats website and then called us. I'm so happy and relieved she is safe and home. She is very very hungry and very thin, she seems to be doing ok and is going for a vet check up on monday. she went nuts when she saw me and wanted a giant cuddle, Seems like she got completly lost but is very happy to be home now.
Thank you so much for all your advice and help, the work you do is incredible, thanks again,

Luisa Paolucci and last but not least, Rizzo!

Pluto a 15mth old neutered and chipped Burmese Blue X male
with Gold eyes
Gunmetal grey: Gunmetal/silver grey velvety close short fur with white bots, a tiny one sided white moustache, white vest and tummy. When walking his white front areas don't show and he looks all grey.
Dear Sue
I had emptied the contents of the vacuum cleaner bag into his favourite corner that same morning and also hung out a cardigan he loves to sleep on from a tree in the other corner of the garden.

I do not know (and he hasn't told me yet) whether the scents guided him home or whether he was shut away in one of the numerous weekend homes here. They all came alive on Saturday night when he reappeared. My fly posters were everywhere and although no one called to confess to setting him free or feeding him, such might well have been the case.

In the mysterious saga of disappearances of cats, it is totally out of character for Pluto to be gone for more than a few hours and he was very very affectionate when he got in. He slept for a flat stretch of 16 hours and I kept him in last night despite a few yowls in protest least the holiday homers repeated any such errors before going away again on Sunday evening (the time he disappeared a week before).

Pluto, strangely, didn't look thinner at all but he smelled dusty as if he may have been kept in. He is a very handsome personality plus cat and someone might have lured him in and tried to keep him with them indoors until they saw from my posters with the detail prominently worded that he is microchipped.

No door to door enquiries produced a thing! Many neighbours recognised having seen his friendly mother come through their gardens or stop to chat with them but none have ever seen Pluto in the two to three blocks I covered in depth in every direction....

This info might be worth putting on your site? I had virtually lost hope and was distraught but carried on calling him at regular intervals, walking and calling and putting out food as well as the dust hoover bag contents:) Something worked and I am so lucky.

Good luck to everyone else out there whose little furry friend has gone missing.   Jubilantly reunited with my Pluto at PE36 after almost a week missing.
Thanks Sheri Hoste

Happy Homecoming

Today we have to report a traffic accident
RIP Ginge, play hard at the bridge little man, you were loved...

' Moggy' would like to say thankyou to the lady living nearby who's help made it possible for Ginge to go home.

Mog an 18mth old entire DLH male with Greenish eyes
His long coat is Pale Ginger, stripey in places. almost a Terracota sort of colour
Sue,
Mog's home!!!!!!  After 9 days of absence he decided to come home, I could not believe my eyes! I have no idea where he has been, he was'nt dirty or had any twigs/debris stuck to him but he was very hungry, possibly shut in somewhere? His collar and tags were still on him.  Anyway he was just as pleased to see me! He kept pushing his nose against mine and was going mad! He had 2 tins of his favourite food "Sheba" and then he slept on my bed with his cushion that he likes to suck and stayed there!  I got him chipped on Tuesday and was worried about him going out again, but he has been sticking around the garden and on the green outside the front of my house. If only they could talk!  Thank you so much for responding to me, I kept reading the stories on the website, the found ones and it made me really hopeful.  Once again thanks.  Kindest Regards

Sophie an 8yr old entire but chipped DHS female with Green eyes
Black all over. No other colouring whatsoever
Hi Sue
Thanks for your e-mail. The RSPCA phoned yesterday to say they had found Sophie about a mile from our house. She had been in a traffic accident and has sustained an injury to her brain. The vet asked us to make a decision about whether she should be pts or whether to wait and see if she improves. We opted for the latter as she isn’t in any pain or distress.
We are waiting to hear how she has done overnight but the prognosis doesn’t look good. I will let you know what happens.
It appears she had wondered across the fields behind our estate. The vet said she wasn’t malnourished or dehydrated so it looks like someone may have been feeding her.
Thanks for all your help.
Laura

Hi Sue
Good news. Sophie improved so it looks like she had only just had the accident when the RSPCA found her. She is now purring and eating etc.
She is still a bit wobbly on her back legs and has lost an awful lot of weight. But we have been given the ok from the vet to bring her home tonight.
I really can't believe this story has a happy ending as we thought she would have to be put to sleep on Sunday night.
I am glad we did not opt for this too soon & asked for her to be observed.
It appears she had got lost in the fields behind our house & somehow managed to wander some distance (including crossing a motorway somehow).
After 7 weeks, we had really given up hope so it just goes to show you should never give up.
Thank you for all your help and advice. The homesafe stories have kept me going & I'm glad we can now be one of them.

Domino a 5yr old chipped and neutered DSH male with Green eyes
White with black circles, one on back, black tail, black above
both eyes and pink ears. black circle on right hind leg
Hi Sue
Just to let you know Domino is safely back home . A lady called on Sun to say she thought he was in her back garden,once we’d gone through a def match, she kept feeding him and I went to pick him up. He’d def been locked in by the look of him, his nose was a little raw and he was very thin.  He had shredded a packet of Iams that were in her garden when she first spotted him. He hasn’t stopped eating since he got back, trip to the vets and alls fine, he's a little traumatized and totally exhausted but on the mend.
Glad to have him back!
Thanks Marlene

Romulus or Rommy 3½yr old neutered and chipped DSH male with Amber eyes.
Ginger Tabby with White neck , chest & paws. Stripey tail . Has V shaped nick in right ear .
Dear Sue ,
Thankyou so much for putting Rommy's details online , I can understand how busy you must be .
Good news !!!! Rommy was found today in a house only a few doors away . The owners had searched it thoroughly all last week .
However this afternoon they thought they heard a wimper & called me to come round . After a while calling & listening he emerged from under a bed in their junk room . They just can't get over the fact he'd been there for so long without them seeing or hearing him .
You can imagine the relief we all feel.
Apart from having lost quite a bit of weight in a week & being ravenous, he is otherwise OK .
I would like to thankyou your help & the help your site does in helping reunite cats with their owners .
Yours sincerely
Sarah Watts .

Morning Sue,
Great News Duncan is home safe and sound, i just cannot believe it!
i got a phone call last night and the guy said to me " have you lost a tabby cat, as i have one here. he's been here for the last couple of days" so i got straight in my car and drove to the mans house (approx 1/4 mile away) i came round the corner and Dunc was there stood on the bonnet of his car, i just couldnt believe it i just cried!
A little thinner than before, but he is in great condition!

Thank you for everything.
With Love

A young 1 - 2 yr old Black cat with Golden eyes. Has no other markings, found on Campus at University of Wolverhampton

Hi Sue  
Some good news on the university cat who is currently on your 'found cats' page TF2 area.
 
'Stray' has been temporarily renamed 'Unicat' and has got himself a comfy new home from the sounds of it. Bless.
I will let you  know if they give him a 'proper' name.
See message below from Sue at the University.

" He was taken at 6am this morning to a nice home by one of our cleaners friends.  She loves cats and decided to give Unicat a home.  From the feed back I have had this afternoon he has settled in and it's as if he has always lived there.  He's made friends with her other cats and is quite at home sleeping on the sofa and eating his food.  At last he has a nice loving home with humans who will look after him really well.  Regards.  Sue Cheshire"

CoCo a 9yr old DSH spayed and chipped female
A Brown Tortoiseshell with Ginger patch on front
Hi Sue,
Just a quick email to say we have found Coco after 2 months!!!
I had a call from the Humane Education Society in Wilmslow to say a family had reported a tortoisheshell cat hanging around their house for 1 1/2 days.  They had taken her to the vets, but her chip had not shown up.  The family contacted the Humane Education Society who had then contacted me.  I can't believe it.  She is about 1/4 of the size she was.  The family thought she was only 1 year old!
Just wanted to let you know.
Thank you for all your help.
Best regards, 
Tina

Alfie a 7mth old DSH neutered and chipped male with Green eyes.
Black with White head with splash of White over face, Black
triangular marking on nose, Black circle on lips (like lipstick) White on chest and stomach. White paws.
Alfie's collar was found on the day of his disappearance and after scouring the area daily, i eventually found him under a neighbours shed.  i think he may have been struck by a vehicle and darted as the shed is near the road. 
I am absolutely devastated, he was my baby. having pets is so painful isn't it, its losing part of your family.

Custard a 5yr old neutered and chipped DSH male with Yellow eyes
Custard is black all over with no other colours. He is quite a big cat, tall and leggy.
Hi Sue
Good News! Custard came home this evening after being missing for nearly three months. My brother thought he saw him at about 5pm on our road but when we looked we couldn't see him. Later my mum thought she heard him meowing but when we looked we only found his sister.

Then later on my brother heard the meowing again and opened the door thinking it was Custard's sister but it was Custard!
We've no idea where he has been but he's not lost any weight. Perhaps all this time he really has been living in the nearby fields catching mice. He's had a cuddle with my dad and purred, which is very rare. And he's settled himself into the dog's new bed, which only arrived in the post today. He must have known that the new bed had arrived.

Needless to say we are so relieved he is home and he seems pretty happy too. To others looking for your cats, don't give up and I hope your cat comes home soon

Found Just outside of Baydon, main road going out towards Swindon.

Susi a 2yr old DFH entire female with Green eyes.
Susi is a small female cat with quite a fluffy coat.
When looked at closely her coat does have a gingery tinge to it. She also has some white markings on her chest.
hi sue,
great news!! susi came home at half 8 this evening. Heard an extremely loud high pitched meow at the back door and there she was. Cant tell you how happy i am!! She has a swollen back leg and her fur by her nail has been ripped back which looks nasty, she is also like skin and bone. Im getting her booked in the vets monday but she is currently laid fast asleep beside me. if she wasnt a cuddly cat she sure is now! Just want to say a massive thankyou for all your help and support throughout the last 2 weeks, there should be more people like you in the world your fantastic!!!!

message to everyone out there who sill havn't found their loved ones, the key is to stay positive and carry on searching because whilst you are looking for them they are also looking for you!!! After two long agonising weeks i never dreamed susi would return and there she was crying at my back door step. So please don't give up and keep searching!!

Alan a 13yr old neutered DSH male.
Grey body and legs except White front right leg, White apron,  White socks, and some White markings to face
Sue
Almost 6 weeks after he went missing, we got Alan home last night. He has turned into a bit of a local celebrity, with an article in the paper, and a piece on the BBC Radio London breakfast show on Friday 19th Oct, when Helen was interviewed live with some of the school pupils that have been helping to find him.

We received a phone call yesterday from someone about half a mile away who had found a strange cat in their Kitchen/Utility room that morning. Whilst the cat ran off before they got a good look he seemed to match the description they had seen on our local posters. The also found evidence that he may have been sleeping more regularly in the linen basket! As recent evenings have been markedly colder it seemed to make sense that he would try and find shelter in this way, whereas we have not really had any positive confirmed sightings in any of the previous 6 weeks and had rather given up hope.

 

We agreed that they would put the cat flap on one way entry only so if he came in again he would be trapped in and we could come and identify him. As it happened, he was very soon afterwards spotted outside and they coaxed him into the house with food.  Yes, it was Alan, very much thinner than when we last saw him but seemingly clean and healthy and very pleased to see us.

 

He is now at home eating lots of food and getting used to his surroundings again. Thank you very much for your support and advice.

Bear is a tabby and white female found in Glenrothes, Fife (KY).  Very big girl and very friendly.

Bear has now found her forever home.

A Black long haired female cat visiting a farm shop outside Elie, Fife, KY9 .  Scared wee thing with exceptionally big feet, short legs and short tail.  Friendly to a point so has obviously been owned by someone at some time although very timid and scared now.  Appeared at the end of last summer but with the recent winter she hasn't faired quite so well and wasn't looking too well hence they called us in.

 She is being well cared for with lots of TLC.  Does have some mild mouth problems that will be seen to this week hopefully depending on how she is coping as she is very scared of everything!

Ellie too has found her forever home.

Gadget a 6yr old neutered and chipped male Bengal cross with Green eyes.
Marbled brown tabby
HI Sue
Great news Gadget is back home. Came home from work and he was sat in the kitchen by his bowl waiting to be fed. He looks fine not lost any weight (he is an excellent hunter) and seems very healthy. I think he wondered what all the fuss was about and acted like he went out just yesterday. No idea where he has been, glad he is home safe and sound.
Thanks for your help and concern.

Kiya a DSH female
Brown striped Tabby with Orange spot on her head, beige tummy with spots
Brilliant news - Kiya turned up after a couple of days.

A rather special Grey and White cat deceased as a result of a possible traffic accident. Thanks goes to the RSPCA Longview who notified his human and kept him safe until ready to go home.

Cirrus a 4yr old neutered and chipped male Flamepoint Ragdoll with Blue eyes
Fluffy - 99% White with an Orange tint to his ears and tail

Dear Sue,

 Thank you very much for putting Cirrus onto your site. We are delighted to say that we now have him back again. We searched everywhere for him and put up posters and distributed leaflets to houses. After two weeks, we concluded that he couldn't possibly be wandering around the village as so many people were looking for him. We were starting to fear the worst. Then one evening, I received a telephone call from a villager who said that two weeks previously she had been walking in a field with her dogs and saw a white cat run up a tree. Every 3 days when she went back with her dogs, the cat was hidden in a hollow up in the tree and eventually she thought of our leaflet that she received through her door and gave us a ring in case it was Cirrus. My daughter and I rushed straight round and found Cirrus completely stuck up the tree, frantic to see us and unable to get down. The RSPCA refused to believe that a cat could survive in a tree for 2 weeks and said that for health and safety reasons they would not attempt to rescue him in the dark and he would have to wait till the morning. I therefore had to get a ladder and with the help of my two children got him down. As our ladder wouldn't reach far enough, I had to hold his cat box above my head and hope he would jump into it which fortunately he did. He was just fluff and bones when we got him back and was very wobbly. The vet said he'd lost 1.5kg. He's doing fine now and is starting to put on weight again. We've bought him a tracking device to go on his collar so if he goes missing again, we can find him within minutes instead of weeks! 

We can't believe how lucky we are to have him back. He must have got just enough water to drink on the few occasions that it rained and luckily it was really mild weather.

Thank you very much for your help and we think your site is brilliant.

 

Best wishes,

Hazel and Stuart.

'Kitty' a 7- 8wk old DSH female with Yellow / Green eyes
All Black with White armpits

Hi Sue
Little Kitty c1904 –found in Randlay, Telford 28^th July 2007
Brownie Guides on way to summer camp found her crying  a couple of streets away, and we happened to have a poster nearby on a lamppost so they rang me thinking it may be Ollie who has gone missing the previous week.

She was only a few weeks old so we took her home as she was dirty and starving.  She jumped in the food bowls and ate loads then went to sleep! Despite several ads in the local paper, rescue centres and all the local vets, not one single enquiry – and she is so cute! We took her to the vets to get her checked over.   

She has settled in here with Izzy Jewels and Paulo.
Izzy ‘mothers’ her and is constantly cleaning her, usually getting her in a stranglehold on top of the TV!

We couldn’t stop calling her Little Kitty so now she is ‘LK’ for short!
(When she’s older I expect she will be Elle or Ellie!) Still looking for Ollie and trying to stay hopeful.

 Thanks so much for your support Sue
Kind regards

Jasper an 8yr old entire but chipped DLH male with Golden eyes
Ginger tabby
Escaped from carrier in the area of Hill's Veterinary Surgery, Carisfort Road...
Hi Sue

He’s home !!!!!!!!!!!!

I got a call this morning from a woman at the other end of the street that Jasper went missing in.  She said that she had a fluffy ginger tom behind her sofa and didn’t know what to do.  She said he looked just like the cat in the posters.  I asked if she could hang on until I got there as I was 45 minutes away at work.  She said that she could only wait a while as she had to go to a conference.  I called the vet and asked if they could help by catching him and I would then pick him up from the vet.  A nurse from the surgery went to the house but the cat had disappeared and it was thought he could have escaped via the front door when the woman in the house had gone to write down the phone number from the notice.  She promised to continue looking for him and let me know if he turned up again.  She said that she had seen him about quite often.

On the way home from work I stopped the car near her house and walked around the block calling him and talking to him.  When I got back to her house I went to knock on the door to introduce myself and establish a relationship and get her on my side.  I got no answer and called Jasper’s name and he answered – he was stuck in the house and was the other side of the front door.  I talked to him and he responded with meows and I could hear him picking at the door mat in excitement.  I decided to wait until the house owners came home from work. 

After a while nature called but I was reluctant to go home and come back in case I missed them and Jasper rushing out the front door as soon as they got home.  I knocked next door and met a very kind and sympathetic family who had the mobile numbers of the house where Jasper was.  I spoke to the husband and he said that he would be home at 9.00.  I arranged to meet him outside and asked him not to open his door until I got there.  I took my husband and a couple of friends as backup with blankets etc.  When he opened the door there was no sign of the cat.  In their living room there was a clump of ginger fur on an arm of a sofa (Jasper’s calling card).  We could hear him meowing but there was no sign of him.  We even looked up the chimney.  The meowing seemed to be coming from the other sofa.  He wasn’t on it, behind it or under it. Somehow he had got inside it – the lining under the sofa had split away from the base and he was lying in there!

I knew it was him straight away because when I put my hand in to touch him there was no scratch or bite and I had to literally drag him out by the scruff of his neck and he was completely relaxed.  He is very skinny and his fur a little dirty and matted.  He is very hungry and weak but very happy to be home.  I will take him to the vet tomorrow to be checked out.  Willem his brother seems most put out and hissed at him several times.  I’ll keep them apart for a while.  Thanks for all your advice and support.  I will enjoy taking down all the posters tomorrow.

Kind regards
Helena

Tinkerbell an aprox.5mth DSH female with Greeny Yellow eyes
Mainly White with Black & Grey tabby markings.
Very clean and obviously well cared for. Playful and
friendly.
Thanks for your e-mail, Sue.  We had no success in tracing Tinkerbell's owner despite scouring local roads for "Kitten lost" notices and displaying "Kitten found" posters in the area.  We also checked with the local vet to see if she had been microchipped.  She is now with the Cats Protection League and we have been able to find a new home for her in Bexley.  In a few days' time she will be vaccinated and spayed and will go to her new owner who has a very similar 2½ year-old cat.  My wife and I have met the new owner and seen her home and are very happy for Tinkerbell to go there.

We would have loved to keep her ourselves but we already have two cats. Thanks for your interest.

Chico a 3yr old neutered and chipped DSH male, a Bengal X with Green eyes.
Brown/Bronze with Leopard Spots. White tip to tail
Hi Sue
Great news - Chico came home this morning - 5½ months after I last saw him. I went out this morning to feed the horses and pheasants and I could see two eyes under my car. I knew straight away it was Chico. I sat down next to the car and called him. He came up to me straight away and I picked him up and brought him indoors. He looks absolutely fine - fit and well. The only problem I have now is the other cats were not happy as he has been gone so long that they did not recognise him. He is just the same - very friendly and purring. I have him shut in at the moment and left him asleep in his favourite place on the bed. I cannot express how I feel - just very shaky

We have to remember there is always hope - especially thinking of Cuba and Groucho

Thank you so much Sue I hope I will not have to contact you again!!

Tom a 10yr old neutered DSH male with Greenish eyes
A Ginger Marbled Tabby, a large cat with Pale and Dark Ginger markings. White paws, belly and tip of tail.
Hi Sue,
Good news !  After a two hour walk of the local neighbourhood in the pouring rain late last night – we got back to our garden to find Tom sat on the path looking at us, as if to say ‘hurry up, I’m hungry, where’ve you been!!!’  The little scamp!!  We were obviously delighted and proceeded in feeding him and giving him lots of cuddles all night.  He was in only an hour and wanted back out again – we couldn’t believe it!  We’re keeping him in now, much to his annoyance, until we get him chipped tomorrow….really don’t want to go through that again.
Thank you for your help anyway.

PussPuss an aprox 5yr old neutered and chipped DSH male with Yellow-Green eyes
His coat is Black with a few white hairs on chest and white patch on the lower belly.
Dear Sue
You sent us an email requesting more info on Puss Puss on 8th October . I replied to it to let you know that we got Puss Puss back on 10th October. A local lady called to say that she had seen a black cat hanging around in her garden .We spent the day searching the area for him but to no avail. Just after we got home the lady rang to say he had returned. We hardly dared to think it would be Puss Puss but there he was large as life, a little lighter and ears covered in rabbit flea bites.

I'm mailing you now because I check to see if Puss Puss is on the 'home safe' list and he isn't. So it occurs to me that you didn't receive the email. I think - as Andrew forwarded your email to me- when I replied I may have just sent it back to him by mistake !!. Many apologies if this is the case. Sadly just before Puss Puss returned our 19 year old cat Pushkin- who had been ill for some time- suddenly deteriorated and we had to say goodbye to her - so my brain was all over the place.
Apologies again and thank you so much for all your help and for starting such a great site.

Sassy a 2yr old chipped - entire Blue Point Ragdoll with Blue eyes
Her fluffy coat is White with Grey Feet, tail and Grey markings on her face
I have fabulous news.  Last night I received a telephone call from a lady in Gillingham, who had found Sassy in her garden.  She is very matted and very skinny.  She was checked over by the vet this morning and apart from a very upset tummy she is in pretty good shape for a little pussy cat who has been gone so long.

Sorry it has taken so long to  let you know but at least I come with happy news.

Mitzy a 7yr old neutered and chipped DSH male with Amber eyes
White with Grey patches. Grey tail with White tip.
Re Mitzy
We registered him with you as missing yesterday, having disappeared on 12^th Nov.
I got up this morning to find him walking across the lawn.
Very thin, very weak but seems otherwise OK. Looks like he’s been locked in somewhere.
Glad to have him back and keep up the good work.

Marvin a Blue Point Siamese is missing from the Helens Close area of Blackpool where he was staying while his humans were on holiday.
Hi,
I think we may have Marvin living with us.He turned up in our garden in July 2005 looking very dirty and thin.He wasn't wearing a collar though but he looked like he had worn one previously. He is very vocal and does tend to overgroom if he is stressed.

When he first "adopted us" we did advertise him as" found" in the local paper,but on the advice of our vet,we described him as "light brown" instead of Siamese,to try and avoid unscrupulous people claiming him because of his breed.The vet also scanned him to see if he was chipped.
He is a very loving puss and loves cuddling upto us all,but especially our 7 yr old daughter. 
He is neutered and has blue eyes.He has a slight turn in his left eye which is sometimes apparent and sometimes not.
He prefers dry food to meat but loves tuna.He doesn't like milk of any kind and we wake up every morning to find he has squeezed in between us during the night!!
We call him Nermal,after the siamese cat in the Garfield movie.

 Obviously we would be very upset to see him go,but we know how we would feel if one of our cats went missing.

Lyn

Hi,

We spoke last night to Marvin's family and established that our Siamese is their Marvin but they are happy for us to keep him.

 

They are going to call and see him this evening,

We believe now that he got into a delivery van a week ago last monday and that the delivery driver kicked him out some distance away about a mile.  We had put A4 posters up on lamposts, newsagents, morrisions.  We distributed 250 A5 leaflets offered a reward of £300 thanks to M&S Insurance.  But still nothing, we then got three phone calls yesterday one from someone saying they had found his collar on their gate, an hour later one from someone saying they had found him frightened in their garden on friday and kept him since.  Although they didnt think about micro chip checking him they noticed our posters, and, called me last night.  There he was looking out the window at their house this morning and the first thing he did was roll over to be tickled (his favourite thing).  The dog is over come with herself now they are back together.  the couple that found him now have £300 to look forward too for their christmas.  I cannot believe he is back home. Thanks

Sue, I am sure you have seen my post on Blackpool Freecycle Cafe - but just to let you know Stripey came home early this morning. She was very hungry and thirsty, but is unscathed by her adventure.
Thank you!

Pav a 15mth old neutered DSH male with Greeny Yellow eyes
A Dark Marbled Tabby coat, mainly Black and Brown with White socks on every paw
Hi Sue,
Just to let you know Pav is home!!!! Hurray!!!!
It looks like he was under the floor boards in a house three doors up, which is getting renovated. He is rather skinny, a bit dusty and very hungry, but apart from that he's fine!!
Thank you for all your good advice!!
Kind regards
Claire

'Fluff' a Black and White DSH female with Yellow eyes
Fluffy.  No owners came forward, so we found her a new home and she is settling in well.

Bobbie a young female Classic Tabby cat with Fluffy / Long hair and Green eyes.
We advertised several times as she had kittens and was with us a long time, but we could not find her owners, so she is now settling into her new home.

Ozzy a DSH male with Yellow eyes
Predominantly White with Ginger patches. Quite a big cat.
Again no one came forward.  He is a bit of a rough lad but one of our supporters needed a fit semi-outdoor cat to hunt rats, and he fits the bill fine (though he sometimes practices his hunting skills on people!).

Found in the area of Clarence Park
'Treacle' a Black cat with White paws
&
'Marmalade' a mixed Ginger, Black and White cat
Both short haired, very friendly no collars.

I had them both scanned for a chip and one of them had one but the owners were uncontactable. They will continue to live with me from now on. Many thanks for your help.

Billy a 3yr old neutered and chipped male with Green eyes
Tabby: Brown and black tabby with white bib, tummy and feet.
His coat is quite soft and silky, and he was in good condition when he went missing.
Hi there,
I registered my cat Billy missing on your site last night. I don't think his ad has gone up yet - I haven't been able to find it.
The good news is - he came home this morning after three days away! I'm so relieved!
Please let me know if you need any more info from me. And thanks very much.

Thomas a 4yr old neutered and chipped DSH male with Green eyes
Black and White : Black face, White whiskers, White chest One front leg more White than the other. 4 White paws. Very short Black tail.
Thomas is Home! or rather feeding in the garden.
When he went missing, I left a bowl of food where I last saw him, Knowing how nervous he is, I moved the food slowly nearer to my garden then eventually after around 10 days into the garden.  The food was disappearing all the time but as I was unsure whether any of my 3 cats or other neighbourhood cats were eating it. I borrowed a camcorder from a friend and whilst checking it was in place, there was Thomas eating on patio about 3 feet from the door. He has been coming back for 6 days, and he is now eating on my step. Just need to slowly entice him back into the house, but have provided shelter (a cat kennel) in the garden if he prefers to live outside for longer.

Eric a 12yr old neutered and chipped DSH male with Yellow eyes
Approx equal Black and White
Top of head Black, White face, nose Black, front left leg
all White, right leg White with Black patch.
HI Sue, Eric's Home!!!!! Joy of joys, what a reiief!!He was locked in a house at the corner of Dinmore and Bathusrt Ave, apparently the owners had a burgalary on Friday and they have not been home properly since. The next door neighbour to them saw Eric in the bedroom window and compared him to the flier, she was convinced he was Eric but had to wait half an hour before he'd turn around so she could get a better look at him, when she did she phoned us, we went around and bless his heart it was him.Only thing is he doesn't seem too keen to be home, is this normal? he seems to want to go back out again now that he's had a good feed. Thanks again Sue for everything.

BG fondly known as Boy, a 2yr old neutered & chipped DSH male.
A Russian Blue cross, Grey/Blue coat with Silver-tipping on extremities, Rusty and therefore Brown on back and sides due to living rough.

15 months - just under - and HE'S HOME!!!
 
First, 'cos most important, thank you so much for your support in those early few weeks and months.
 
With no sightings I had almost given up hope - until, by chance, I caught a grey cat in my headlights on Tuesday a couple of miles away - actually in the next town. Couldn't stop - too much traffic, narrow road where people drive far too fast. But I went back after work. No sign.
 
Nonetheless, convinced it was BG, I leafleted the big posh houses along the road and had a call from an old lady who he had adopted a few months ago. Before then (when all the publicity was up in that area, although I didn't do house-to-house that far away) he must have been living along the railway line. No access at all, it's all fields, trees, fenced off - no wonder no-one saw him. She was feeding him, but he was living outdoors - she didn't want to adopt him and get too fond of him as she'd lost a cat to the main road a few years previously. She trapped him in her greenhouse this afternoon and called me. I called the vet - picked him up - straight to the vet and chip confirmed :D - but I knew on Tuesday morning. He's very well - in fact, he's FAT! I'm sat in the spare room with him settling him in again, he's sat by my on the bed (hooray for wireless internet!) purring like a little train.
 
So happy that he's home - best Christmas present EVER!
 
Final message to anyone whose furbabe is still missing: you just never know. All you do can never be enough until they are home - and you can't "do nothing" (if I hadn't leafleted those houses,
