A deaf cat is missing after hitching a ride four miles from home in a delivery van.
Dobby lives in The Meadows, Nottingham, but on 20 May he hopped inside a driver's vehicle as a stowaway and rode to the Carlton area of the city.
The white tom cat has a tracker tag in his collar but the trail went cold after he slipped out of it in a garden.
Rescue charity Beauty's Legacy is working to track down Dobby. Senior animal welfare officer Lisa Dean said: "The fact that he's completely deaf, makes him exceptionally vulnerable."
Beauty's Legacy is planning to install cameras and food stations in the area where he was last seen.
Dean added that there had been potential sightings of a white cat not seen locally.
She said: "Anyone that lives in the Carlton area, just be vigilant if they see a pure white cat that they've not seen before.
"He's very distinctive - he's got bright blue eyes, a very pink nose.
He's very inquisitive and very friendly, but obviously, he's now displaced in an area he has no idea where he is, so he's going to be skittish.
"Put some food down, put some water out to attract him, and if you see him, call us and one of us can get over there."
People taking their dogs out in 30 degrees plus temperature, jumping into ponds on Hampstead Heath disturbing nesting birds, Beagles locked up & left alone up in stinking heat in metal cages at MBR Acres animal resting breeding facility in Cambridgeshire . It all makes me so bloody angry
Short documentary (11 mins) showing the heartbreak that captive #cetacean facilities have on dolphins, whales and people. If you are an activist against cetacean captivity and your family and friends don't understand, please ask them to watch this film. https://t.co/QgtoqtVZaZ
@domdyer70@NatureBookish If you see one, smash the window and call the SPCA. Here in NZ it is an offense under Animal Welfare Act, its $300 and you face prosecution with heavier penalties if animal suffers significant heat stroke or dies.
One in six dog owners have left their pet in a car at a temperature that could put their lives at risk. ๐จ
70% of Brits who currently own or have previously owned a dog, 16% have in a car with temperatures ranging from 13 to 24 degrees and above - for an extended period of time. ๐
Research also shows more than half of Brits believe owners should be fined for putting their dogs at risk. โผ๏ธ

Iโm sick & tired of seeing people walking their dogs in the intense or leaving them in cars. Temperature will exceed 30 degrees by Monday & dogs will suffer & die because of ignorance & stupidity. Please look after them enduring this heatwave it can be a killer for our precious companions
