A cat needed stitches after being attacked by seagulls. Puss "Pudding" was almost hit by a bus as she ran across a road to escape the onslaught.
She was found walking with a bad limp and with a cut on her shoulder by Exeter bin crews and recycling staff, Devon Live reports. Now she is recovering from her ordeal after the crews raised £100 for treatment to her injuries.
Pudding adopted two adjacent depots in the city as her home a few years ago. At night she sleeps in the Devon County Council site, snug inside in a shelter issued by the Cats Protection Society.
