Cat left looking like Bagpuss after his fur was dyed pink by fly-tipped ink



A cat has been left looking like Bagpuss after his fur was dyed by red ink dumped at an industrial estate.
Jayne Richardson, 40, was stunned when Casper - usually grey and white - arrived back at her home looking like the pink and white-striped 1970s children's TV favourite.
She said: “Now he’s pink and looks like Bagpuss.
“It’s an amazing sight but it does show how much of a problem fly-tipping is.
“I’m still a bit worried about him, in case he’s been poisoned, but he’s okay at the moment.
“We’re very lucky that our house was not ruined. My husband managed to contain him before he got the ink all over our carpets and furnishings.”

After Casper arrived back at Jayne’s home in Eastwood, Essex, she followed a trail of red ink on bushes and vegetation to rubbish dumped on a nearby industrial estate.
The moggy was taken to the vets’ for a checkup and is still slightly pink, despite a bath
