This was BA who was found a while ago - he was really poorly and it was touch and go for a while but the last I heard was that he was making a slow recovery with lots of TLC from his owner.

The marbled neutered boy Leo is still missing though  :'(

Found Kitty at Ironbridge Power Station

Just seen this on the E-ON intranet site:

A potential catastrophe

Our Generation Springwatch campaign highlights the abundance and diversity of wildlife living on and around our power stations.

It’s not unusual for our colleagues working the late shift to see the odd fox or two wondering about but imagine the surprise of Graham Cooper, a Scaffolder with one of our contract partners at Ironbridge Power Station when he spotted an unusual looking, but clearly injured cat on the station's grounds.

Graham immediately contacted the local vet and took the stray feline in for emergency treatment. With its distinctive features the nurse instantly recognised it as one of the stolen cats that had been reported missing weeks earlier in the Wolverhampton area.

It turns out that the kitty was one of four award winning rare Bengal cats worth around £4,000 who were stolen from their home in Wolverhampton.  The Ironbridge cat was the second one to be found and the good news is that it’s been reunited with its relived owner.  It’s suspected that the cats were dumped and the other two could be roaming about the Much Wenlock area.

The Ironbridge team are hoping for a happy ending where all four cats are returned home safe to their owner.  They were thankful they were able to lend a hand in the rescue this beautiful creature and prevent the situation becoming a ‘catastrophe’!
In ancient times cats were worshiped as gods; they have not forgotten this.
