LOST

Pumba

Name:	Pumba
Breed & Species:	Domestic short-haired cat
Colour:	Black
SimpleColour:
Went missing:	10 months ago (14 July 2023 at around 08:00hrs)
Location:	65 Melton Road, King's Heath, Birmingham B14 7ET, UK
Health:	Healthy
Age:	8 years old (approx)
Sex:	Neutered Male
Collar:	No
Microchipped:	Yes
Markings:	Two small patches of white fur on his chest, and a much larger patch of white fur at the base of his tummy. One claw/toe on his right front paw sticks up slightly.
Circumstances:	Pumba ate his breakfast on the morning of 14th July and then went out as normal, this is the last time we saw him. There was heavy rain on this day, and a loud wood chipping machine was parked on our street and in constant operation all day. Pumba is frightened by loud machines like the hoover so was possibly spooked by the wood chipper when out and about.
Other info:	Larger than average with thick but short fur and fairly thick, fluffy tail. Green eyes. White hairs inside his ears. Right hand whiskers are half the length due to a recent procedure.
Our ref:	PR96798

Pumba was found by neighbours a few doors down from our house. He was hiding underneath their floorboards and they suspect he had been there since the day he went missing. He ran into their house after getting spooked, and hid under their bed. They thought he had run back out of the open door but he found a hole under the stairs and managed to get underneath the house. Neihgbours heard meowing and then were able to investigate and call me.
