A deaf pet skunk that escaped from a garden has been found.

Sky went missing from her home in Purewell, Christchurch, Dorset, on Friday night.

Owner Sharon Tyler said the seven-year-old pet was spotted relaxing under a car close to her home during a search with friends and neighbours late at night on Tuesday.

The brown and white skunk was reunited with Ms Tyler after some coaxing with a piece of chicken.
