Stray very poorly tabby and white cat on a drip at the vets found in Castel

Submitted by Steve on 16:40, 31st Aug, 2018 | 0

This afternoon a cat was rescued in a garden that had collapsed.

The female stray tabby and white cat is extremely thin and is extremely dehydrated so was rushed to the vets where she is currently on a drip.

She sadly has no microchip and blood results are showing she has some major health issues.

The cat was found in Castel and will need to stay with our vets as she is so poorly.

We are appealing to anyone that has lost their tabby and white cat to please call the Shelter on 257261 or to pop in to the GSPCA in St Andrews.
