A North East cat café has issued a plea for a member of the public to take a chance on a Greek street cat this Christmas that has so far struggled when it comes to rehoming.
Groku, a 16-month old white and tabby cat, has been at the Bad Cat Café in Wallsend for eight weeks. Though it may not sound like a long time, owners Tasmin Hirst and Roxanne Scott usually see cats rehomed within a month.
However, with Groku there are a few catches that come with the once feral cat, who was brought back from Greece by a couple who fell in love with him on holiday - only to find out later that he was a bit of a handful! It is thought that he was hit by a car in his native land, meaning that he has a damaged intestine and colon which are smaller than those of other cats.
