A reward has been offered after a skunk escaped from a house near Lichfield.

Skittles went missing from the property in Johns Avenue in Handsacre at 11.30pm on Friday (September 13).

The owners – who run the Critterish Allsorts educational and animal therapy company – say they are desperate for information about the missing 18-week old animal.

“Please check sheds, garages, under bushes or anywhere else that may be a hiding place,” they said.

“Skittles is just a baby and is very much loved by us.

“She needs a special diet and regular feeds without which she may die.”

Anyone with information is asked to call 01543 304632, 07794 342355 or 07825 575163.
