Walter, from Barnstone

November 5th, 2019

This is Walter.

He is a small, all black, male cat, missing since early June from Works Lane, Barnstone.

He has a small tear at the top of his right ear.
He is neutered and microchipped, but no collar.

Has anyone been feeding him?Has anyone noticed a cat sheltering in their shed/outhouse?

We have had a few potential sightings reported to us and believe he could still be in the village.

Please don’t try to catch him, he is very timid and will just run away.

He is friendly but likely to only approach someone who has gained his trust ie by feeding him.

Please mention to anyone else in the village who may not have seen the missing posters.

Please contact me on 07950451508 if anyone has any information.
