Lost cats
We have another cat up broken hill road, kenepuru near the tip entrance that has been sitting having a good ole meow out there tonight & as that is their way of communicating with humans, i dare say this poor baby is perhaps lost.. We haven't managed t get a pic of it yet but at this stage it looks like possibly a ragdoll / birmese breed so far. Dark face, dark tail but light cream/honey coloured body. Just a good reminder to those that have most their furbabies to flick me a private message if you have lost your cat locally in particular for me to sing out names late at night when these cats come out to find food. We have reunited cats with their families as far as waikanae before as the food source would be plentiful with the tip here ect. so please do message me if so, I'd love nothing more than to reunite more loved ones with their furbabies, it can be so hard scrolling through pages n pages looking at photos alike & some may get lost in the past aswell. :)
