I would be really grateful if anyone reading this could keep their eye out for our cat. He disappeared at the end of August from the Whittell Gardens area of Sydenham, which is a road that runs between Sydenham Park and Sydenham Park Road and backs on to the Peak. It is also near Peak Hill.
He has been seen in Sydenham Park, Sydenham Park Road, Peak Hill, Peak Hill Gardens and Sydenham Road.
He is a neutered tabby cat with white paws. He is very affectionate and friendly.
He is my daughter's cat and they were very close. She is only 4 years old and I got him for her when her dad left. As you can imagine, she is very very upset that he is missing. She keeps writing notes to him, hoping that he will come back.
I am offering a large cash reward for anyone that finds and returns him to us.
Please help us find him. My telephone number is 07970 116271.
Thank you.
LOST CAT IN SYDENHAM
He's been missing since the end of August. He was staying with my mum while we were on holiday, as the cattery that we were booked into couldn't take him at the last moment. He is very very loyal (used to try and jump in the car with us when we went out!) - which is why this is so unusual. He spent a week with my mum and was always with her, before disappearing.
I've spoken to the school keeper and to the school (they have put one of my posters up).

I know the pain of losing a cat. Have you put up posters? When I lived in Brixton my cat jumped from a 2nd floor balcony and I thought I had lost her forever. But a whole 3 months later, after weeks of going round Brockwell park shaking packets of cat biscuits and getting weird looks, I got a call in response to one of my posters. She had been taken in by a guy in a houseshare and was very well. Why they hadn't called me sooner I have no idea. (Turned out they had kept the poster for that length of time) Anyhow I got her back. So persevere, you never know. Good luck.
Thanks for your replies. I've put up tons of posters with photos on lamp posts and in shops, and put leaflets through hundreds of doors (literally). I've had quite a few people ring me to tell me they've seen him, but nothing comes of it. He just seems to have disappeared into thin air. I don't know if someone is keeping him inside, but I'd think they'd have to let him out at some stage??? Its been 2.5 months now.

Before hopes are raised, I suspect that may be one of mine, currently staying in Syd Park Road. Very fluffy tail, goes by the name of Hazel.I saw a tabby with white paws on Peak Hill two nights ago, near the junction with Collingtree Road. It was a fairly big/longer haired cat? I live in the area and have not seen that particular cat before.
