Dead cat (Ginger and white) found today Forest Hill Road near St Aidan's Road junction

[LMitchell]

This morning (19/12/17) at about 8am I found a dead ginger and white cat in the gutter on Forest Hill Road opposite the junction with St Aidan's Road. I moved it from the gutter to the side of the pavement so that it won't be squashed by a vehicle. It is on to a patch of bare soil beside the wheelie bins for the nursery that is there. It's quite obvious.

I feel very sad and hope that the owner will see this post and be able to collect their cat to say good byes. Please share this / spread the word. The cat had a bloody injury to its face and had obviously been hit by a car, but other than that, it looked normal and the owner shouldn't be worried about turning up to a too grotesque scene.

I hope the owner sees this too. Very sad. On behalf of pet owners everywhere, thank you for what you did.

Poor thing.

I have just heard from a friend who passed the spot an hour later that the cat has been moved. Not sure who by. If it wasn't the owner, and they see this, it might be worth asking in the nursery whether they know anything about moving it - maybe they saw it when they put something in the bins?

You have been really kind and thoughtful OP. Am so sorry for the cat owner :(

Hello,

This is our cat Jake. I wanted to say thank you so much for being so kind and respectful of Jake, and for posting on here. I'd been looking for him today. We've told our sons about Jake and that a very kind person took care of him and was respectful of him. It's very comforting to know that you took the time to do this.

Thank you, Anna
