UPDATED 9th July:

Hi - just to add to the info above. This lovely tabby/white/tortoiseshell cat escaped whilst being rehomed outside SOAMES ST SE15 on 6th July. Her two kittens are safe but missing her. Unfortunately guy dropping her off didn't use a carrier and the cat escaped. She is now out, scared and in totally unfamiliar surroundings! As Amanda's post says she's very very nervous so hoping someone can gently entice her with food without scaring her (see details on attached image).

I've attached an image with more details about the cat and contact details for Amanda who's desperately trying to find her...

This clearly wasn't handled by a rehoming shelter... sad. The best times to call & search are mornings & evenings when the streets have less activity, she can hear a familiar voice & will be more likely to come out. Good luck.

Are her kittens weaned? If not, you could try taking a couple of them out in a secure cat basket if she is spotted. The call of her kittens will bring her out. Also speak to either Celia Hammond or the Cats Protection League, who have a lot of experience and the right equipment for catching nervous cats. They won't judge over what has happened, but they will help to catch a nervous cat.


Just as aside (for information) and not to lay blame in anyway. Rehoming or moving a cat when they are nursing kittens always comes with risk. Mothers wean kittens in a space they feel to be safest. So they are always very nervous if that is moved or disrupted in some way, even if the intention is a good one. Also, once a cat comes into season, she will be chased by every non neutered Tom, which means she can be chased for miles. So the need to find this cat asap is more than just one of her not getting pregnant again.

    • Trump changes his mind as often as the clock ticks. The man is an egotistical buffoon, similar in ways to Starmer, another egotistical, do as I say, not as I do, wedged to the hilt hypocrite who still thinks he's Head of the DPP not the first minister.   Certainly don't want beef from the US, it'll hurt our own beef production farmers, revered around the world as the very best with the quality of British and especially prime Angus Scotch Beef.  Just don't export to the US and only import from there what is essentially necessary. 
    • The deal with America is currently being announced Is it a good one for us or have we been sold a pigs ear as a silk purse ?  Personally  as it involves Beef bring imported to the UK, I don't believe its in the public interest. Interested to see others reaction 
    • Ground nesting bees are different. They don't swarm in the same way. https://beehunterma.com/how-to-safely-get-rid-of-ground-nesting-bees/#:~:text=Using a hose%2C gently soak,labeled for ground-nesting bees. Sorry I think that might be American bees. But so far as I can see the method for UK bees with water would be the same. It seems the most humane way, as it just encourages them to relocate. I had a nest of white tailed bumble bees in my garden last year. It was fascinating watching them go in and out of the ground.   But then I didn't need to put a shed over them!
    • If it's a bumble bee nest they won't be interested. But they are an important part of the local ecology. I don't know whether bumbe bee nest can be transferred readily. But they shouldn't be destroyed.
