Injured Cat in Garden

[catherinek]

Hi All

Last night we had a visit from an injured male tabby cat (see photo) - his left paw is in a terrible state, and unfortunately we had to let him out again because he was too frightened. Currently he's wandering the back gardens of Crystal Palace Road near the leisure centre. We're worried about him, so if anyone recognises him, please get in touch with me.

Best

Hi Catherine. I have sent you a private message. Thanks.

Hi Catherine - I have only just seen this post and it looks very much like my cat Leo. He has been missing for a week & if you see him again please can you try to keep him in and call me.

My number is: 07780 475540. I live on Bellenden Road.

Thanks - Jo

This may be missing Leo

Has anyone else in that area seen him since?

We are still out looking for Leo. If anyone spots him (see pictures) please let us know. We are concerned that his health is deteriorating and he may have trouble walking with an injured paw.

You can call 07780 475540 any time. Thanks everyone.

Catherine, I think the cat in your photo could be the same one that has been visiting us on and off all summer.

We live at the bottom of Crystal Palace Road, so possibly not the missing Leo

I've attached a photo, his drooping left ear is quite distinctive.

Thanks Cactus

This is not Leo. He is still Missing though sadly.

Thanks for the clarification

Hi Cactus

Agree, I think that is the injured cat we saw here. If you see him again, can you message me please and I'll come and get him. He needs medical attention -

Thanks, Catherine

Sorry to hear that Leo is still missing, I know how worrying and upsetting it is when they don't come home. Good luck with finding him.

Yes, I'll try and capture the tabby if he returns to ours. He's been dropping by quite often, but I haven't seen him for a week or so. I was concerned with how thin he was, and figured he was likely to be a stray. I've been feeding him a little, but we do have a cat so I didn't want to encourage him too much, but luckily he's not aggressive towards her.

I emailed Celia Hammond about him, but after initially saying that they could help, they went silent on me, perhaps just snowed under.
