IT is my belief that animals should be respected and not subject to unjust persecution.

I recently was told of two incidents where animals required help.

A lady who said a young black and white cat at Four Acres Withywood had received bites on its neck and it appears to be neglected. I have not seen the lady since and efforts to follow this up have not succeeded.

I am very willing to assist in these matters. Also a friend of mine is going to contact Secret World in concern over a fox seen in Lacy Road, Stockwood which has an injury which stops it from using its front paw.

Secret World are known to help foxes and I hope they can help this animal.
