Sergeant Stuart Hare, Rutherglen Police Station, said: "Cat has never been missing before and for her not be in touch with family or friends is concerning.

"Officers have been making local enquiries since she was reported missing and have been checking CCTV and liaising with local bus and taxi companies but so far no one has seen or heard from Cat.

"We would ask people, especially in the Fallow Grove/Red Deer Road areas to keep an eye out for Cat if they can or if anyone has doorbell camera, then to check the footage in case she has passed by.

"If you have seen Cat or have any information that will help us trace her, then please contact police via 101 quoting reference number 1769 of Sunday, 15 August, 2021.

"We'd also appeal to Cat herself and ask her to contact her family, a friend or police just to let people know she is OK."

Cat’s partner has posted on social media saying that they had last seen her after checking the doorbell cam to see her leaving the house.
