I’m in the mood fur dancing: Nolan Sisters fan Bruce needs a home

-

A THREE-legged cat who likes nothing more than singing along to The Nolan Sisters is looking for a new home.

Bruce – also known as Onyx – who lost his leg in a road accident, is looking for his fur-ever home, where he can spend his days crooning along to his favourite girl band

The musical moggy, two, is currently living with his foster carer Tina.

But due to her needing an operation which means she can no longer care for him, he is looking for a new owner to which he can showcase his talents.

Tina, who is a volunteer foster carer for Holly Hedge Animal Sanctuary in Barrow Gurney, near Bristol Airport, first discovered Bruce’s unusual talent when her neighbours were playing music.

“My neighbours had some music on and then suddenly Bruce started meowing,” said Tina.

“And remarkably it was in tune. He loves singing. Every time he hears music or I put the telly on he starts. It’s like he is drawn to it the minute it starts.

“He seems to like the Nolan Sisters.”

Not only is Bruce a crooner, he’s also quite a chatty fella too.

“It’s like you can actually have a proper conversati­on with him,” said Tina.

“Although obviously his side is cat language. But I can sit there and talk away to him, like most people talk to their pets, and he actually talks back.

“He’s a very vocal cat all round.” And having three legs does not hold Bruce back.

“He’s got getting around on three legs off to a tee,” said Tina.

Holly Hedge Animal Sanctuary cattery manager Lucinda Pullen said Bruce needs a quiet home – apart from when the music is on of course – with someone with lots of time to play with him and have a chat and sing-a-long.
