my much loved cat went missing last wednesday around the prenton road west area of prenton, at least thats where we found his collar. worryingly,it was in the road.we dont know if he`s been hit by a car and run off or someone has removed his body,i`m desperate for answers. he is a black nuetered 2 year old with a distinctive`white dicky bow `under his chin, he also has the odd white hair here and there throughout his body,h. please please helpe usually wears a blue spotty reflective collar which we now know has come off. his name is mr raffles

IU'll keep me eyes open for you, good luck and I hope he comes bk.

We lost our tom cat last year,he just disappeared for a week,the thought was he was in a garage and the people went on holiday for a week,he came back dusty and hungry but was ok,the vet said most moggies go on a walkabout for a while but usually return,so all you can do is hope.

That's my neck of the woods,I'll ask around to see if anyone knows anything.

unfortnatly i dont know how to upload his photo. i am desperate to find him. i did post leaflets thru doors on prenton rd west last thurs, but the only call i got was from a woman who shouted abuse at me down the phone. i`m worried in case he`s been hurt and cant get home.thank you for caring.

think i`ve sorted it now,i hope so anyway. if i,ve done it right you should see what he looks like.

Awww he's lovely, hope you find him, i will keep my eye out, im just off borough rd by Tranmere rovers so not too far away,your best putting a few notices in some of the shop windows along borough rd, with the pic scanned onto them. i really hope he turns up safe and well. Kev

p.s leave ur mobile number on here as some ppl dont like to post or havent joined but just like to read.

good idea. a big advert is going in wirral globe this week. my mobile no is 07980034974. may go down to borough rd now.

hope you find him soon

Try putting a few ads in the shops on Woodchurch Road by Sainsbury's , he might have gone up that way, you never know.By the way we got one of your leaflets, he's a handsome lad.

you must live quite close to me then. he is a handsome lad isnt he. he has a personality to match. he also has 2 sisters that are missing him ,theyve never been separated .they were rescued as kittens. some kindly sole decided to throw them out of a moving car when they were about 6 weeks old.

Hi I live in Higher Bebington and I drive through Prenton so i will keep an eye out. Try all the local vets. I found a cat and went to the vets and there was a card. He had come from about a mile away and been missing for over a week. When I rang his owner she didn't want to come as she felt sure it would be him. But it it was. If his collar was fastened it has probably been pulled off in a fight with another cat. Don't give up hope. If he had been knocked over he would have been found. Years ago we had a cat that jumped into a van belonging to a gas fitter that was working in the house. When we found she was missing we rang the fitter who was really embarrassed and said a black and white cat had jumped out of his van when he got home. He tried to catch it but couldn't. He lived in Moreton and we lived in New Brighton. We spent countless days driving around Moreton. Then weeks later my brother saw her on the M53 wasling along the embankment but when he stopped she had gone. Finally after three months she returned home. Good Luck.

thanks so much for your words of encouragement. am trying to stay positive

Hiya raffles, i seen a cat at the Top of North road, (just off derby rd) that looked just like Mr raffles, at approx 1am tonight, it was looking at me from underneath a car at the very top of the road and actually started to come out to me,it never looked to roadworthy to be honest, (i was on my mountain bike) it looked a bit lost, i really could not do anything at that time as it was too late to investigate further or get in touch with you, so i just rode off in case it wondered onto derby road, but it might be worth taking a drive up that way tomorrow just in case it was Mr raffles, it was under a car which was parked outside number 2A north road. Fingers crossed

God... I wish sometimes that i had the ability to be disconnected... But i aint., i still look out for the Escaped Budge, 9 days on!! I even give the common garden birds The Evils now.....

As in, im not feeding you anymore when there is a good chance that you ve pecked my Budge to death....,?!

thanks kevinx. will go up there this afternoon. i`ve employed a specialist company to help me look for him today, so we`ll go up that way.i`m absolutly devestated ,we`ve got to find him.

Awww good luck Raffles i hope its Mr Raffles,i will take another ride up that way later when im going to my mums,so will be passing there twice and if i see the same cat again i will call his name and see if he approaches me in a relieved kinda way etc, im gonna copy the pic of him onto my cam phone so that i have a good view (dont want to be picking up the wrong cat and be arrested for catnapping lol) ive got ur mobile number aswell so will give u a bell straight away from my mobile, but hope u see the same cat before i do and it is him. good luck and fingers crossed. Kev

been up there this afternoon spoken to a few people . if you would take a piccy of him - if you see him then that would be wonderful. i will know in an instant if its my babe. you are so kind. even if its not mr raffles your concern is overwhelming, my faith in human kind has been dented this past week, but people like you help. we`ve already found a poster of mr raffles in a bin , it was only delivered this afternoon.

Ah Raffles this is such a sad story. How horrid to find a picture of him in a bin ,I could cry for you. Horrid person that did it.
Hope so much that you find him. X

Hi Raffles, sadly i havent managed to set eyes on the same cat tonight, ive even been shoutin Mr Raffles at the top of North rd but not a cat in sight im afraid, im always out and about the area on my mountain bike as thats my way of keeping fit, i cover everywhere around Tranmere and prenton and mainly go out at night times when rds are less busy, so often see a fair few cats,i will keep looking out for Mr Raffles and pray that others are also doing so for you and that Raffles is home with you and his 2 Sisters where he belongs as soon as possible. Kev
