Found a cat?
If the cat is injured or clearly unwell, take it to the nearest vet straight away. If you can't, contact the RSPCA.
If the cat seems healthy:
- It may not be lost. Many cats roam, so check whether it's well-fed and comes and goes.
- Ask a local vet to scan it for a microchip. This is usually free.
- Ask neighbours, and post on local lost-and-found groups with a photo.
- Some people fit a paper collar with a note to find out whether the cat has a home.
- If no owner is found, contact a local rescue.
