I’ve lost my cat
Search your own home and garden. Cats love small cosy spaces and might be hiding in the unlikeliest of places – from cupboards to garden sheds
Ask neighbours to check sheds and garages and put up posters in your area
If your cat is microchipped, let the chip company know and make sure your contact details are up to date
Contact local vet practices (Alver, Vets4Pets, Jollyes & Companion Care)
Contact the Stubbington Ark (RSPCA) 01329 667541
Phone Streetscene 08000 198598 in case your cat’s been involved in a road traffic accident
Use social media! Post a picture and description of your cat on your own Facebook page as well as community and local lost and found pages
I’ve found a cat
Ask your neighbours if they recognise the cat –someone might be searching for their lost pet
For finders of cats involved in road accidents it’d be appreciated if the cat could be taken to a local vet who can scan for a microchip
Stray cats found on the street aren’t always without owners so it’s important to check whether the cat is owned or not. CP volunteers can help with this and can scan a stray to check for a microchip
CP volunteers can put a paper collar on the cat and advertise.
If the cat is sick or injured, call the RSPCA on 0300 1234 999
