This cute kitten had to be rescued by the RSPCA after it was abandoned in a flat for more than a week.
Police were called in to break down the door of the High Barnet home after worried neighbours, who had not seen the occupiers for more than a week, contacted the animal welfare charity.
Barnet Police tweeted pictures of the rescue yesterday and said the young cat would be nursed back to full health.
The adorable animal appeared unfazed by the ordeal as he was collected in the arms of his rescuer.
