FOUND - Lost Ginger and White Cat Townley Road/Lordship Lane

[MissHPower]

Hi,

Our cat Gizmo (picture attached) has been missing for around 4-5 days. He is well known around Townley Road and often hangs about on the pavement outside Alleyns School and at The Townley Road Clinic.

His roaming area is quite large including Dovercourt Road and Beauval Road.

Please can you keep an eye out for him and contact us if you have seen him in the last 4 or 5 days.

Many thanks,

Holly and Jim (07879 440 749)

Our own ginger cat has been going into 5 Beauval Road recently as this house is unoccupied and building works are taking place there. The builders seem to have all the doors and windows open when they are there. Could Gizmo be trapped inside? I haven't noticed the builders working there for some days now and the house seems to be shut up. Worth your checking? I do hope you soon find Gizmo who we know well. He is a lovely friendly cat.

Any luck finding Gizmo? My partner and I where walking home last Saturday (23rd) after having dinner in East Dul at around 11pm and we saw a young lad (18/20ish) cross the Main road from Towney Clinic side with a Ginger cat in his arms. We thought it seemed a bit suspicious but he was acting as if it was his own cat. He was with 2 other guys. We have tried to retrace our steps to remember which road it was they went down, we think it was Pellat or Whatley Rod but cannot be certain. We aren't sure if it was Gizmo as couldn't see the white underside but could see it was a ginger cat.

Sorry and we hope to hear good news that you are reunited soon.

Last Saturday was the 23rd so that could tie in with the poster's cat being missing for 4-5 days.

Let's hope Gizmo is found soon.

On Saturday afternoon when I was out a man knocked on our door and asked my husband if we had lost a gingr cat as he had found one in his garden on Lordship Lane. He thought it may have been attacked by a fox. My husband gave him the mobile number of Gizmo's owners in case it was Gizmo. Was it?

Jennys, do you know what the outcome was?

[MissHPower]

Hello all. Good news Gizmo was found over the weekend.

Thanks to those that helped that chap find our mobile number.

He had injured both his back legs, possibly a fox or another cat or barbed wire so he couldn't get home. He has an infection but should hopefully be fine after a week at home and some antibiotics.

So pleased to read that Gizmo is home and that he should recover from his ordeal. It's great that the cat the man from Lordship Lane had found was indeed Gizmo. My husband said the man from Lordship Lane was apparently going around the area knocking on everyone's doors to try and find the cat's owner. What a lovely person.
