LOST

Arthur

Name:	Arthur
Breed & Species:	Skunk skunk
Colour:	Black & white
Went missing:	14 years ago (15 June 2011 at around 18:00hrs)
Location:	Kennington, Oxford, Oxfordshire
Health:	Healthy
Age:	15 years old
Sex:	Male
Collar:	No
Microchipped:	Yes
Markings:	Very fluffy with a plumy tail, face like a badger, size of a very large cat, able to run fast.
Circumstances:	Arthur escaped from the garden of a friend who was looking after him (i.e. he doesn't know the area). He was chased by a dog across the railway line and was photographed by a passer-by an hour or so later in the meadow (whilst we were searching down the tracks). Rumour has it he has been seen near Sandford Lock. If you see him please contact us immediately so we can come and try to find him. He can be tempted by food and picked up by the scruff of the neck into a hug, he won't bite and won't spray unless terrified. If you manage to get hold of him there is a decent reward!
Other info:	Comes out mostly dawn / dusk but can be up any time. Digs holes. Knows his name but quite shy. Able to spray if very, very frightened, but will generally just run away (never sprayed so far). If hit by a car will definitely make a bad smell.
