Cat flees from surgery to avoid the snip

A cat was on the run last night after fleeing from Woosehill Vets in Woosehill, near Wokingham, Berks, moments before it was due for the snip. Lexi leapt through an open window as the vet prepared to carry out the castration.

The animal’s owner, Maria Brown, only discovered that her cat had gone missing when she went to collect it from the surgery and was given a pet rabbit instead.



The two-year-old cat made the dash for freedom through an open window while its sister, Angel, went through with neutering as planned.

Miss Brown said she was “too distraught” to talk about her missing pet and was hoping Lexi would find his own way home.
