"It's a real shame for her to be in the cattery while she still feels well and we want to get her settled into a foster home ASAP so she can enjoy the rest of her health for as long as possible.

"As her health is inevitably going to decline, we are looking for a home with no other pets and no young children.

"This is to ensure she stays safe when she becomes more fragile.

In the time being, Goldie would enjoy a safe outdoors space to explore."

The spokeswoman added: "Thank you - we know it's an emotional ask and we appreciate the support.

"Goldie may be ill, but right now she is still a playful, affectionate young cat and she will make a wonderful companion for somebody in the time she has."

Whilst in a foster home all her veterinary care will be funded by the centre.
