A MICKLEFIELD pet owner is growing increasingly concerned after several cats mysteriously disappeared, including her own beloved four legged friend.

The mum-of-one, who did not wish to be named, said she knew of four moggies which had gone missing from the Micklefield area in the last few weeks.

Her three-year-old cat Tiggy, who disappeared on September 27, is among them.

She said: “I have been door to door and I phoned all the rescue places, even the council. Nobody's seen my cat, he's just disappeared.”

Tiggy, a ginger and white tabby, is microchipped and has never gone missing before. His disappearance is not only upsetting his owner, but also his playmate Leo, a black five-year-old tabby.

The 48-year-old mum, who lives off London Road, said: “If Tiggy's gone out at night, first thing in the morning he's back by the window. I have got no idea what's happened, it's just so unlike him to just disappear.

"It's like grieving but you can't grieve. You can never move on because I don't know what happened to him.

“Leo's suddenly not eating, he's looking around making noises. They used to play together.”

She added: “Four cats gone missing, it just seems funny.”
