Lost cat

14 years ago...

We've lost our beautiful brown cat in the Balaclava Road area. He's one year old, very slender - similar to a siamese or burmese. He's really friendly and only been going outside since we moved to Surbiton two months ago, and is not very streetwise. He disappeared late at night on Friday 30 March. If you live on or around Balaclava Road, please check your sheds and/or garages - he meows a lot so will most likely talk back if he's there. Please let me know if you think you see him.
