After sleepless nights and an incident which involved chasing the cat away, he took to Facebook to plead with his neighbours to help.

In his post he wrote: “If you think this might be your cat can you please keep it in for a few nights.

“For the last week it has spent most of the night mewling on our terrace or being chased by me with a water-pistol around the garden.

“As you can see from the picture below it is mainly dark grey with a white undercarriage and a rubbish voice.

“No one in our House wants to have sex with you Mr cat please go away.”

At this time no one has come forwarded and admitted to owning the cat.
