I received a phone call saying that the body of a cat resembling the description of Pebbles, who is lost, had been seen in St. Edwards churchyard in Selly Oak, Birmingham. The caller thought he'd probably been run over and moved. I called the church, it was not Pebs, but a large, unneutered, mostly tabby cat. The priest said he'd seen a leaflet with Pebbles' picture and details (actually, his mum's pic, but they are identical) and that Pebs has too much white to be this cat.
I thought that someone might be missing this cat. The priest said he was noticeably unneutered, mostly tabby, large, with white socks.
If anyone in the South Birmingham area has lost such a cat, ring St. Edwards. The number is easily found via google. Sorry to be the bringer of bad news.
