Black cat found on Te Whiti Road, Masterton

Annette from South Wairarapa District

We urgently need to find the owner of this cat as he seems to have an underlying health condition that he needs treatment for. He is currently with the SPCA in Masterton and if we don't find his owner or someone who is willing to pay for a large vet bill then he will be euthanised :( He was found on Te Whiti Road near Masterton around the 18th of March. We thought he was our missing black cat and took him home with us on 29th of March. Due to covid we weren't able to have a proper vet consultation and have only since discovered that it can't be our cat as this cat is about 7 years older! He is a really lovely cat and likes having cuddles, but isn't happy around our other cat or our toddler. He's an average size male black cat around 10 years old. He has a slightly wonky pupil in his right eye and is missing a bottom tooth. He has a dent in his tail near the tip. He has a few white hairs on his chest. He is not microchipped unfortunately.
