please would you try attaching a paper collar made from a strip of strongish paper, with a small piece of tape, giving your contact number and asking if puss belongs to anyone. If they are just visiting, you should get a response.

Thank you for looking out for this kitty. It is good of you – so many people just don’t bother. They quite possibly live locally, but their owner may not be on social media. It is really important if you could please, to ask at as many of the houses as you can in your street and in the street in front and behind you to see if anyone knows this cat? This is often the best way to find an owner. They could easily have wandered this far, and cats have been found only a couple of streets away after being missing for some time. Or please put up some posters. The nextdoor website/app is a good place to post too. Thank you. X

Would you be able to get kitty scanned for a chip please? Maybe you know of a local rescue who could scan? If not please try ScanAngels – they may be able to come to you. Or, if all else fails, please take them to a vet to be scanned, using a secure cat carrier so that there is no possibility of them escaping – they will get totally lost then. They will do it for free. Thank you.

Hi, thanks for the comments, we have a chip scanner and it doesn't have a chip. Our catflap has been propped open since it arrived and it's been in the garden plenty but doesn't want to leave! We've had a few strays come our way over the years. This one seemed particularly lost and confused when it first arrived. Will post a message on the nextdoor app. We've informed the local vets and asked around the neighbours but no luck yet.
