What should I do if I find a cat that seems lost in Barnsley?
RSPCA Barnsley & District advises that a cat that seems healthy should first be left where it is to see if it goes home on its own. If it won't leave, take it in a secure pet carrier to a local vet to be scanned for a microchip. If the cat is injured, call the RSPCA national line first.
