The Blue Cross helps pets like...
Mere
Mere, a nine-year-old black cat, was handed in to The Blue Cross because her owner was moving away and could not take her with him.
Happily, Mere is now enjoying a new lease of life and has settled really well into her new home and, as cats do, has taken over the run of the whole house!
Mere is quite talkative and walks around the house talking to her owners. She could talk for England. In fact, this was one of the things that first endeared Mere to Trish, her new owner
Mere has found her ideal home where she is truly the centre of attention and doesn't need to share with any other animals.
