You can't change the world by rescuing one cat, but for that one cat you are changing its world.

I think we could all do with a little happy news this week.

Quote
A pet which changed the life of a boy with a severe anxiety disorder has been named National Cat of the Year.

Jessi-Cat was honoured for helping Lorcan Dillon, seven, cope with selective mutism, a condition which affects his ability to express himself.

Lorcan, from Davyhulme, Greater Manchester, can now say "I love you" and share his emotions when he finds it difficult to speak to people.

The cat was honoured by feline charity Cats Protection
.
