Cat Found

Are you missing a cat?

 

A very friendly tabby cat (grey and black stripes) has been milling about on our property, in the evenings @ Lot #400 North Cove Road.

We were able to get close enough to pet her and found her ear tattoo: tai 06e 
The tattoo, upon Internet look-up seems to be associated with the Duncan Animal Hospital. We tried calling the hospital, but they were closed at the time of posting this e-spokes ad.
 

If your tabby cat has gone missing, please contact us at your earliest convenience. 

We have not taken her into our home, as Ruth is allergic.

 

Kind regards,
Q & Ruth Goodbody
