He is black and white (white legs and paws, white belly, and mainly black on top, black face with white markings around his mouth and nose), and when last seen, was wearing a black 'Staywell' collar with magnetic mouse.

He is a friendly little thing, but it's really out of character for him to disappear like this, a he usually spent every night asleep on the bed with us. Nothing particularly different/unusual was happening at the time he disappeared.

Smudge was unfortunately hit by a car about a year ago, and as a result, lost the sight in his left eye. He still retains the eye, and you probably couldn't tell by glancing at him, but if you look closely, you can see a difference between the right healthy eye and the left one.

Smudge disappeared from Verona Drive in Surbiton/Tolworth in Surrey.

We miss him desperately, so are trying all we can to spread the word. Please contact Helen on 07940 500699
