A YOUNG tom cat needs a home after it was found wandering the streets of a County Durham village.
The cat, found in Eggleston near Barnard Castle, is being cared for by the National Animal Sanctuary Support League, in Darlington.
Pauline Wilson, of the league, said the cat had wandered into a man's garden in Eggleston just before Christmas.
"He asked all around the village, but nobody had seen the cat before or knew who it belonged to," she said.
Pauline said it had obviously been a well-loved pet and was used to being around people. But she does not know whether it has been lost, stolen or dumped.
Anyone who thinks they own the cat, knows who it belongs to or wants to offer it a home can contact Pauline on (01325) 321855 or (07974) 300174.
