THE desperate owner of a missing black cat is offering a reward for information.

Five-year-old Houdini, a black make cat, went missing from his home on South Drive, Upton, on Sunday September 13 around 10.50pm.

Worried owner Sonia O'Gorman is still searching for the Siamese cross breed and is now offering a reward to anyone with information.

Houdini has a small white patch on his chest and another white patch on his stomach. He is very tall with large ears.

He has been neutered and microchipped and can be scanned by any UK vet to confirm ownership.
