A ONE-EYED cat is desperately seeking a loving owner to give him a new home.

Theo, named by Maureen Savage, of Moggies Cat Rescue, Darwen, was picked up off the street last week after sleeping rough on a frozen grass verge.

Maureen said: "I had a phone call from someone who had spotted the cat on a number of occasions.

"I think he was either left behind by a family or made his way here after moving to another home.

"Theo hasn't been neglected because tests show there's nothing wrong with him."

"He's an absolutely lovely cat and so affectionate and friendly. He doesn't mind other cats and just loves people.

"He's a black cat and we think he's over five years old."
