Lost tabby and white cat Phoenix 11 months

Renee from West Harbour

Missing tabby and white cat Phoenix

Missing 11 months from Cyril Crescent West Harbour Auckland since 5th November 2023 spooked by midday fireworks BUT I could be anywhere now. If you see a cat that looks like him with or without a collar if you could please get a photo or video so his mummy can check and track him down.

He's so scared and skittish do not approach him. Please check under houses, in bushes, garages, sheds. Searching across Auckland for him.

Please check around all of Massey, Hobsonville and West Harbour including Cyril Crescent, Flaunty Place, Elizabeth Drive, Trengrove Place, Midgley Road, Moire Road and parks or alley ways around Luckens Reserve, Moire Park, Flaunty Reserve, VTNZ bushes by Hells Westgate, Trig Road Whenuapai, Hobsonville Road, Rush Creek

If you have any information or if you believe you have seen him on anyone's property or streets roaming. PLEASE reach out to his mum Renee contact 0221248580. The more eyes that are looking for him, the better chance we have to find him.

Phoenix is desexed, microchipped and flagged as missing.

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?
