We'd love to know where he's been - he's only within a mile of where he went missing, but the lady who handed him in said he's been sleeping in her garden for the last few days, sneaking her cats' food (as we thought he might). The vet can't believe how well he is - he's lost nearly a kilo in weight, his fur's gone greyer - but (as they say) no marks, chips or cracks! I've to take him back to the vet on Wednesday - she says we need to look out for unexpected symptoms as we don't know how he's fed himself or whether he's dehydrated. He doesn't seem bewildered - but we are, I feel quite shell-shocked!
