One of the UK’s oldest rescue cats is searching for forever home aged 20 – 100 in human years.
Timmy was taken in by the RSPCA after his owner was no longer able to cope with him.
He had kept sitting in the road which resulted in people repeatedly taking him to the vets and animal centres nearby worried for his wellbeing.
Timmy is currently being cared for by the RSPCA’s Burton-upon-Trent & District Branch with staff at Hillfield Animal Home in Stretton, Staffs.
The adorable puss is now said to be looking for a ‘special retirement home’ to spend his twilight years.
Georgia Coxon, from the Burton branch, described Timmy as a ‘loving boy’ and said they hoped a forever home can be found for him soon.
She added: “He’s a very special boy who as you can imagine at the age of 20, might not have long left but certainly has enough love to give in the meantime and deserves comfort in the time he has left.
“He’s doing really well for his age, although he will be on hyperthyroid medication for the rest of his life and has a small cancer growth on his face.
“But this isn’t currently affecting his quality of life and isn’t in need for treatment.
“Now in a foster home Timmy is now kept as an indoor cat and has settled in well.
“His new owner would need to do the same and keep him indoors.
“Please do get in touch if you could provide a loving retirement home for the lovely Timmy.”
Anyone who thinks they can offer Timmy a new home can visit the branch for more information or contact the animal home via 01283 569165.
