The RSPCA circulated the video in the hope of finding information about the man, who was caught on camera in Stoke-on-Trent, central England, on December 17.
A passerby found the abandoned animal sat in its bed and took him to a local vet, who called the RSPCA, according to the charity.
The Staffordshire branch of the organisation posted on Facebook on December 24 saying the animal was being "well cared for" and appealing for information about the incident.
