In the event that someone has brought the cat home and adopted it, Nur Ariani hopes they can reach out and update her so the residents can have peace of mind knowing it is safe.

“I also hope that if someone found it in a different area of Jurong and doesn’t intend to adopt it, please return it so we can take care of him,” she said.

Anyone with information on the cat’s whereabouts can contact Ms Ariani via her Facebook page.
