A plea for help was received by Cara Downey as follows:

Dear team
Please can I ask a favour? I wonder if you could post this on your website and tag it on to your next email alert with the attached picture? I know it’s not a usual thing you send round however I thought I’d try my luck!! My cat has been missing for 3 weeks now and I’m desperate to find him, I’ve put up loads of posters and flyers in doors and thought this may have a wider reach. Would really appreciate it! Feel free to edit. Thank you. Cara P.S. I am holding out hope as a few years ago he went missing for 5 weeks and was found stuck on a roof on Pentonville Road!

LOST CAT
Have you seen Leon? He is a black semi-long haired cat with a very fluffy tail (see photo). He has been missing from his home in Kings Cross for three weeks. He is very adventurous and I’m worried he is stuck somewhere as this has happened before. He may be in an outhouse or shed or building site. We live on Caledonian Road and the garden backs onto Omega Place at the back of Pentonville Road, the old coachhouse, and Keystone Cresent Gardens which back on to Northdown Street Gardens. He was sighted in this area recently although he could have gone further. He isn’t wearing a collar but is microchipped.
Please please get in touch on 07901 865 560 if you have seen him, we miss him greatly as does his brother. Thank you!
