Warning to Palmerston cat owning residents

So far in 2009 there seems to be a disproportionate number of cats go missing from Palmerston as opposed to other areas – 25 from suburbs in Palmerston as opposed to 33 from all other areas (Dwn and rural). This is a head count of the ones which have not been reunited. (Goodness knows how many haven’t been reported on telaf)

Not sure what is going on but if you read this and own a cat or know of people who own a cat can you please warn them. Its always a good idea to keep your cat inside or allow outside under supervision and never at night.

RIP – Dog – Pommeranian

I am just emailing regarding a dead dog that I saw last night when I was walking my dogs.

It looked to be a Pomeranian, not sure on sex, it was wearing a multi coloured collar but I could not see an id tag on it. It seemed to have died no more then a week ago. Not sure on age. It is located in Palmerston in Lockwood Park in Woodroffe at the entrance closest to Gunter Steet about 30 metres up on the left hand side of the path.

Found/RIP – Cat (kitten) – grey tabby and white (RSPCA)

Unfortunately this little girl didnt pass the vet check so has been put to sleep Found in Woodroofe approx 14/10/09 Female Medium Hair Light Grey Tabby and White Under 1 Year old. Not Microchipped or desexed. Very Friendly

RIP – Cat – Tabby and white

unfortunately this little cat, although well socialised, had not been desexed or microchipped and was euthanased to today due to his injury – a dog attack.
A badly injured cat was found today in Hazel Court, Coconut Grove. Despite attempts to catch the cat to take him/her to a vet, the cat proved very evasive and was last seen disappearing down a drain in that location.  He is a medium hair Tabby with white socks and ginger flecks throughout the fur.  The cat is very skinny and has been on the road for some time.  This is not a feral cat as I was able to scruff him but when attempting to get him into a cat carrier, he struggled and unfortunately I lost my grip. He needs medical attention asap.
