An African Grey parrot valued at £900 has been stolen from a pet shop in Caerphilly.

Thieves took the animal from Silver Star Pets in Pengam, along with dog leads, dog coats, fish tanks, pet food and dog grooming equipment worth £35,000.

The incident is one of four break-ins that occurred at the Britannia Enterprise Centre some time between Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning.

Police are appealing for information.

The other units broken into were Auto Stitch, George Monumental Masons and Pride and Groom where damage was caused to the doors but nothing was stolen.

A taxi sign, however, was also stolen from one of the vehicles parked at the centre.
