Runaway peacock gets in flap

- MARK SMITH reporters@dailyrecor­d.co.uk

A BIRD-LOVER whose peacock tried to squeeze through a cat flap is being sought by the SSPCA.

The peacock, who has been named Felix, was found outside a house near Inverurie on Monday.

The bird is now in the care of the SSPCA’s base in Drumoak, Aberdeensh­ire.

Animal Rescue Officer Helen Bissett said: “Felix was pecking at the windows of the house then tried to put his head through the cat flap.”

Anyone who recognises Felix should phone the SSPCA on 03000 999 999.
