Jubilee an injured stray cat at the GSPCA needs your help

Submitted by Steve on 10:54, 12th May, 2015 | 0

On Friday of last week 'Jubilee' as we have named him, a stray sick cat was rescued from the Castel area.

Jubilee was caught by a member of public near Castel Hospital and has a nasty left eye injury and a few other health problems.

On Friday he was rushed up to the vets and is currently on a series of treatments.

We have estimated Jubilee to be around 3 years of age and is an entire male, semi long haired black and white cat with no microchip.

We are appealing for the owner to come forward but it is likely he has been a stray for some time.
