Missing / kidnapped cat

    If anyone is around the Grannagh area or passing by can they keep an eye out for a foxy cat. Our so called neighbour caught him in a rat trap, brought him out to Grannagh and left him there. The cat was missing a couple of days when a friend said they saw this neighbour put a foxy cat in his van in a cage. When confronted he admitted it and said he left the cat off out by the papermills. We have searched the area yesterday and this morning and there has been a couple of sightings. Any help greatly appreciated. We have a little one at home who keeps asking for him but we haven't told her yet. Cheers

    What a nasty thing to do. Any idea why he would do something so spiteful?

    Best of luck finding your cat...hopefully she'll turn up safe and sound. :)

    Yeah I'd def be reporting them to ISPCA, curious did the cat have a collar/name tag? As if it did then very clearer the neighbour would have known the cat belonged to a person and wasn't a stray...but I'd assume they knew it was your cat anyway.

    He knew it was ours alright. He caught the cat in the trap before but at the time he said he had the trap out for rats and didn't mean to catch the cat. I just took his word for it.
    Cat didn't have a collar as any one we put on him kept coming off and he was l

    Are you living in the City?

    My mother passed a cat like that on the Gracedieu road earlier today. I know thats a fair distance for a cat to travel but you never know...

    Your neighbour sounds like a nut btw

    Hope you get your cat back. I can't believe what your neighbour done, He needs a good hiding. Cats are fairly tough and they'll go where the food is so you might get someone feeding him. You should get on to Wlr about the Cat and with the story too and you'll reach a bigger audience and hopefully get him back as long as that eejit didn't hurt him. Best of luck.

    It's shocking to think someone would do such a thing. I hope you've been reunited with your cat.

    Why havent the guards arrested him or at least told him if he doesnt go and find the cat he will be arrested?

    This makes no sense at all.

    Guards took statements from both sides and have passed the file on. Just have to wait and see what comes of it

    I would suggest that you keep on the guards' backs about this, because they need to be reminded.
