An appeal has been launched to trace the owners of a cat that was found in the engine of a bus in Scotland after it returned from a 400-mile trip to the south of England.
The cat jumped out of the engine of a minibus that had arrived back in the Parks of Hamilton depot in Blantyre on July 7.
The bus had travelled around 410 miles from South Mimms services in Hertfordshire, stopping at Norton Canes and Lancaster services.
After hanging around the depot for a few days, the animal was taken to the Cats Protection Scotland’s centre, where it was discovered she isn’t microchipped.

The charity is appealing for anyone who recognises the distinctive-looking cat to get in touch.
A social media post explained: “We believe this wee lady has travelled quite a distance as she was found in a minibus engine that arrived back in Glasgow after travelling from South Mimms services, also stopping at Norton Canes services and Lancaster services.
“When the bus arrived back at Parks of Hamilton Depot in Blantyre, she jumped out of the engine when the driver opened it and stuck around for a couple days until she could be brought to our centre.

“Please share, it would be a miracle if we could get her reunited with an owner. Sadly she is not microchipped.
“Please note that photographic evidence is required to claim a cat back.”
