He is trained to come in at night, and we are very worried something might have happened to him. He lives on Sidlaw Street, But May have been seen on Ahuriri St around number 20.. He is only 1-year old and very bold and friendly, he might be locked in under your house or a garden shed... or have hitched a ride in someones car. He is a standard Ruddy Abyssinian in colour, with a long lean tail and is very chatty. He is microchipped and is wearing a fluro yellow collar with his name on it and a tracking tag. The tag only has a short range proximity... which is why we are worried he might had wandered much further afield. If you have seen him, please let us know!
