He is quite lithe really. Not at all hefty. I would imagine not more than 2 years old. Notable features are small nick in right ear and eyes a bit close together. We will take him to the vet as a last resort as it can be quite distressing for cats not used to baskets. I would put a paper collar on him but he is sticking firmly to our fence and garden so not much chance he would go home. He looks in really good shape so I doubt he has been away from home for long.

Anyone missing a black cat, male I think, roughly around the area of Peckham Rye, The Gardens/Doctors' surgery? Has a small nick in right ear, eyes a bit close together but a lovely looking animal with shiny coat. Likes to rub up against people. Has been sitting outside our house for several days on and off, even at night, and tries to get in to the house when we open the door. Thought might have gone wandering as it is spring.

If this is a long haired black cat who is very vocal, then perhaps I am also feeding her/him. S/he appears regularly most mornings and continues to wail until fed (2 packets of soft, wet food only), after which s/he makes a swift exit. I live in The Gardens and have been feeding this animal for quite some time. My impression is that s/he does have an owner who seems to groom the cat extensively. As the animal seems quite happy to disappear after being fed and just lurks in the garden occasionally, I have just assumed that I am pandering to a "Six Dinner Sid".

17.07.15 Thanks to all who helped reunite cat with owner. Original posting Very handsome marmalade cat with distinctive white markings has been loitering in my garden since Monday and crying very loudly. If you are missing a cat like this, please phone 07565 709 484 or 020 8 693 5006 to collect. The cat is very tame and affectionate and probably well-loved. Email ruth.delvin@btopenworld.
