DESPERATELY SEEKING PUSSKAT
Hi Folks PussKat update. 13/10/24
Big shout out to the lovely people who have assisted with flyers and allowed us to put out traps following possible sightings. Your support is so appreciated.
We have followed up on a few potential sightings but PussKat remains elusive.
Traps have been moved about when sightings made plus a few remain in sites that we know cats wander. It appears that there is a circular corridor that cats follow in the area, with sub colonies along it. These sub colonies that cats travel between are in Dyer St, South End, McDonalds and near Quarry Rd.
PussKat is short in stature and would still be wide in girth right now, ears are short after being singed in fire as a kitten. The fire also messed up his paws and his claws are missing or munted. He is microchipped and details up to date.
Flyers have covered the area on industrial side and parts of Smeatons.
One white and tabby, unsocial, unchipped not desexed Tom missing teeth and clearly living very rough and struggling and looking unwell cat went into traps. As no chip found and clearly unwell he was humanely euthanised. Heartbreaking. A report came in for a young tabby seen deceased on the berm on entry to Gull. Sadly the body has been moved so could not be scanned. We don't think it would as PussKat due to both size and also we had a very likely sighting of PussKat days after. However if you know of someone who moved the body and buried it I'd love to check it for chip....sounds grim but can give closure.
Pusskats owner has been walking, with her dogs, calling and creating scent in areas PussKat could be.
Once more thank you for support. Every possible sighting can be a genuine possibility towards reuniting Pusskat with his family. Please call in with sightings alive or otherwise.
