My cat Barnaby is black with white paws and chest, ranges widely from OX4 2BA and sometimes gets into trouble with resident cats. However he has white on his moustache and I can't tell if the found one has. He is 4 but looks older.

Sorry, it is not Gabrielle's cat

I finally managed to capture him after a year, I took him straight to the vets to get his fight wounds sorted and to get his pockets pinched if he was not chipped (he wasn't), but it turned out he tested positive for FIV. I am so sorry for him as he evaded capture for so long and as soon as he showed a little trust, this happens, I have since tested both my cats for FIV and they are negative, however people in East Oxford best check their cats out as Fred's wounds were recent and whoever inflicted them will probably now be infected. I could not keep him indoors as he would have hated it and I could not risk him fighting again, I feel awful, but it had to be done. ??
