Yes of course I will email you with the mob no of the guy who put the advert in. I didn't think of that possibility as the guy said he was told that it was people in a Nissan, but of course that info could be wrong. I will email u now and if u don't get my email pls let me know ASAP. I would hate to think of this poor mite at municipality.

Update for all......unfortunately, i can't say if this is good or bad news. I left a few texts for the ad person trying to get an update and offering to help get the cat and i just called the guy and spoke to him. The guy said that he had gone down to see the cat and that someone (from shops where cat used to hang out) told him that some people came yesterday to get the cat. I only hope that the intentions of the people who took the cat, are good. I feel very sad and feel so bad as I wish I had gone to pick him up yesterday. I did tell the guy that if he sees him again, to give me a call. I can only hope that either he was 'found' by his original owners or that some kind soul has taken him in. Unfortunately, there are also other possibilities that dont bear thinking about. I feel so sad for the poor thing and wish I coud be certain that it had gone to a good home.
I can only send a huge cyber thanks and hug to all of you who have taken the trouble to try to help. Lets hope he is now cuddled up on some kind person's lap, purring contentedly with a belly full of food. I just hope so...

So sorry to everyone who has been kind enough to take an interest, but only just had a chance to log back into this site ( been very busy sorting out family issues).
Ok......update....as much as I know so far, although no definitive soution yet. When i first saw the ad i texted the person on the ad and suggested they contact some of the relevant charities ( gave contact details etc). In meantime I posted here ( huge thanks to kind interest from you all) and last night I sent an email to friends of animals with a link to the dubizzle page. They came back to me to say they had contacted the person on the ad and suggested that the cat shoud be taken to vet to see if he has a micro chip. They can then see if they can put him on the foster page to see if anyone will have him temporarily. I then texted the ad person again to check they had got the text and to ask to be kept updated. I don't know if he has been picked up off the street yet and taken to the vet, but I will try to find out and let you all know. In the meantime......if anyone knows of a loving home for this little mite to please get in touch.
Btw......huge thanks to you all for caring and to all the animal charities out there who do so much. Really hope we can all help this cat.

I tried calling the number last night, then sent a text message and finally emailled this morning, to see what I could do to help out. No reply to any of my attempts to contact Snowflake.
Would be good to know if the little guy is safe.
The Dubizzle post is still up. Page 5 on the Pets Classifieds.

Thanks so much for the interest and replies. Yes, as far as I know he is still on the street. I am hoping to find a permanent solution for this poor mite. I am trying to convince my other half to have him just temporarily to feed him up etc, but I am away in two weeks time so my other half isn't keen on having the additional responsibility of another cat to add to our existing brood while I am away. I am sure with a lot of love and food he would turn into a beautiful cat......I gather he is very friendly.
I know that there are thousands of cats out there but some are born street cats and might be slightly more capable of coping, but it doesn't sound as if this one is. Any help, suggestions gratefully received and thanks again for help with feline friends board

Pure white Turkish angora a new addition to the many cats living rough on the street,
Yes, I know there are thousands of needy cases out there, but I saw this pathetic sad looking cat on dubizzle and just felt so sorry for it. It is obviously an abandoned pedigree pet and although it looks very sad and neglected now, no doubt it would be a stunningly beautiful cat with his white fur and fluffy tail once it was fed up. Poor thing is no doubt not used to being on the street and this heat can't help If anyone is thinking of having a pet please think of this little fella. I don't know the person who put the photo on dubizzle but I just couldn't help being moved by the photos and thought maybe putting a link here might help this poor cat find its forever home. He is still living on the street poor thing.
If you can't follow the link I have put check out dubizzle pets ( currently on page 3).
