[rememberwhen]

Sorry to have to report this but it may put someones mind to rest

A large,short haired,all black cat with no collar was hit by a vehicle at the junction of Colwell Road tonight.

He/she sustained massive injuries and was gone in seconds so didn't suffer.

The cat was hit at about 7.30pm

Thank you, it is not the same cat as he was last seen later in the evening.

It may belong to the Garden Centre? There's often a black cat hanging around the station and I have seen it sleeping in the garden centre window.

I think it's too far from The Garden Centre, it was at the crossroads where the Magnolia is.

Update. I have now taken the body to Lomax's Vets, by the Harvester, to see if they could find a microchip.

Unfortunately one couldn't be found but they have kindly agreed to keep the cat for two weeks and then cremate it, if nobody comes forward.

That's very kind of you to go to those lengths, hope the poor owner is able to say goodbye properly.

Somebody has put up notices in Ulverscroft Road re a sixteen year old black cat with one tooth which went missing on Friday night.

This would be quite near the Mag.

I'll contact them tomorrow.

Sue, that was the one you brought to Celia Hammonds

I know that now - as I brought it in on Thursday evening, I did not think it could be the same cat, as that one was reported as having gone missing on Friday night. Also its condition led me to assume it did not have an owner :-$

I would have kept it a day or two before bringing it to the rescue centre, but couldn't as I was going away. I didn't see the notices until yesterday.
