Froglander - yes, we're thinking of doing this. Any recommendations for good, lightweight trackers?

Update: Cheetah has been found. He was crying/yowling near Goodrich School (quite a way from Fellbrigg!) and some very kind people at the school took him in and looked after him until I got there. Many thanks to them.

Our large, darkish tabby cat Cheetah (who went missing for 8 weeks this very time last year) hasn't been seen since Sunday 1st Sept late afternoon. He lives in Fellbrigg Road. He's wearing a blue collar and is vocal and friendly. Since he was found last time (in Henslowe Road) he has never been away from home for more than an hour at a time, so this is unusual. Please check sheds or locked places, and contact us if you've seen him. Many thanks. Tel: 07788 414791.

Thanks all! Tomskip - that's a bittersweet story. Sometimess cats give us the distinct sense we don't own them, they just live with us for their convenience!

Thanks Turtle! He was on the far side of Barry Rd from where we live, about 10-12 minutes walk from our house. As for where he's been, he's keeping that to himself! He certainly looks healthy, so he's evidently capable of getting fed when he's away from home, the canny lad!

Amazingly, Cheetah is home after eight weeks and one day. We are over the moon. He's just had a slap-up meal and a few licks from his brother who, like us, is trying to work out where he's been. Thanks so much to the eagle-eyed spotter who sent us photos tonight. We went straight round, saw him, called his name and he came running. At last we can take all the posters down! Thanks a million also to the dozens and dozens of people who have reported sightings or just sent good wishes. Community power! Adrian and Jacqui.

Please continue to keep an eye out for Cheetah in case the heavy rain overnight drives him to beg at your door for a warm place to shelter or something to eat!

Wonderful news! So pleased you have Leo back :-)

Thanks Gerty! We're keeping an open mind about whether Cheetah's been in that area, and have been asking around. Some of your neighbours on Oakhurst reported a tabby to us, but when we went to check for ourselves it wasn't our cat. Still worth keeping an eye out though - appreciate your info!

Our big tabby cat Cheetah has been missing from Fellbrigg Road, East Dulwich since 22 September. He could be close (maybe chased out of his territory and lost) or he could have strayed further afield by now. Typically he's a friendly and confident cat so he may not come across as a distressed stray (although after three weeks away from home his behaviour might have changed). We miss him. Please contact us with any information at all ? for instance, could he be being fed by someone near you? Obviously, if you find an injured or deceased tabby which could be Cheetah, please don't be afraid to get in touch. Many thanks to everyone who has contacted us so far.

Thanks Denfra - can't be definite from the pics, but if they're saying the cat seems young and small, that makes me doubt it's Cheetah (it'd be hard to describe him as small!)
