A lost cat in Renfrewshire caught vets off guard recently when they discovered it was 9,000 miles away from home.
Stunned vets with the SSPCA who picked the moggy up in Erskine on May 22 checked it for a chip, which revealed that its home address was in Australia.
The cat had been visiting a house in Hawthorn Crescent since Christmas. The residents noticed that their new feline friend appeared to be becoming unwell and so called the SSPCA.
