A Nottingham woman has opened a shelter in her own home for disabled and elderly cats who struggle to find a home. Holly Brockwell who is based in West Bridgford currently has seven cats with various disabilities including four with wobbly cat syndrome.
Holly was inspired to create the shelter after she adopted an elderly cat called Maud. She said seeing the difference that love, care and affection made to Maud in the final months of her life inspired her to create Holly's Merry Moggies.
"I have always wanted to do this especially after I adopted an old cat who I nicknamed Furious Maud. She just looked so angry all the time and like she hated everything which was quite funny. She was in a real state when I got her as she looked as if she had been neglected and needed a lot of dental work," she said.
