LOST

Tino

Name:	Tino
Breed & Species:	Domestic long-haired cat
Colour:	Grey
SimpleColour:
Went missing:	3 years ago (08 June 2020 at around 23:00hrs)
Location:	Woodside Green, London SE25 5EU, UK
Health:	Healthy
Age:	19 years old
Sex:	Male
Collar:	No
Microchipped:	No
Circumstances:	I went to bed on the 8th at midnight and Tino was indoors. My 8 year old son heard a commotion (he describes it as 2 cats fighting with a fox) in the garden at 6am on the 9th June and looked outside but couldn't see anything. Tino would normally be sitting on my neighbours windowsill waiting to be let in but he wasn't there. I wanted to give him his medication for an over active thyroid and when I saw my neighbour asked her if she had Tino indoors and she said she hadn't seen him at all and presumed he was in with me. My neighbour saw a bit of blood on her door. We then looked in our gardens and found spots/smears of blood on my sons football, on the decking and paving stone halfway up the garden. There are little holes in my grass made from an animal. My next door neighbour but 1, heard foxes in the garden around 3am. He has an over active thyroid which I had just started treating him with meds.

Thank you. He hasn't come back and I found half of his tail at the back of the garden so 99.9% sure a fox got him. There was blood on the decking, my sons football and on the stepping stone up the garden. .

I am so so sorry to hear that, absolutely awful, It is quite unusual for foxes to attack cats, they normally keep their distance from each other, maybe their were cubs so the vixen would have been very protective of them. Once again sorry and my thoughts are with you xx

I found half of Tino’s tail at the back of the garden after I posted him missing. I know a fox got him. My son heard the attack. And there was blood on my decking. I saw a fox go for my neighbours cat the next morning.

Are you for real? If I saw the attack/fox I would had kicked the fox to kingdom come. My son heard it. I was asleep at 6am. He looked out didn’t see anything and went back to bed and didn’t wake me up! Why are you asking me about this near on a year later after my original post?!?! I closed the report. I found blood on the decking and my cats tail at the back of the garden. I would have done anything to save my cat!

I do not understand why you are questioning this now. I’m heartbroken. Just shut up! Case is closed! I explained everything in my emails before.
