Old Park Farm Garden Holders Association

I am writing to various organisations in the Bilborough and Wollaton area to remind them that my cat Bramble is still missing. I have had three independent ‘sightings’ of him over the past week or so in the area around Harrison’s Plantation, including one today from Torvill Drive close to the junction with Old Coach Road where it passes over the railway line and another on Grantleigh Close, which crosses Old Coach Road a little further south.

If this is my cat, he may be hanging around Old Coach Road on either side of the railway line, so please keep a lookout for him. He may also be living in Harrison’s Plantation and visiting the area around Martins Pond. He will not go near Glaisdale Drive or Wollaton Road as he is terrified of traffic, although he is used to using the railway embankment as a thoroughfare.

I am attaching some photos of him. He is large (about 34″ long) with a bib but no white on his face. If you see him, please contact me at any time on 0115 928 2896, my neighbour Mae on 0115 928 6385 or my cousin Lynn on 0115 989 0243. Lynn can arrange for you to send a photo to her mobile or by email. If he looks unwell, please do not hesitate to contact the RSPCA. He is listed with them locally as missing and his reference no. is 2193. He is a patient with Ambivet on Lambourne Drive and is microchipped. The Vet on Glaisdale also has a poster about him.

Please feel free to forward this message to friends in the area, especially the block described by Lambourne Drive/Torvill Drive and Russell Drive as if Bramble is still with us, this is likely to be one of the places that he would go, the other possibly being Balloon Woods (where I have investigated some sightings of lookalike cats recently).
