Jo Brand’s Cats & Kittens

(Channel 5, 8pm-9pm)

There are 8.5million cats in Britain, with one in five UK households owning a pet moggy. Late last year, Jo Brand presented one-off documentary Kitten Rescuers (a spin-off from The Dog Rescuers). And now the self-confessed feline fanatic returns with a full six- part series following the vets, RSPCA inspectors and volunteers who work tirelessly to save the nation’s felines from harm. She begins the series on the frontline tonight, reporting for surgery duties at one of the UK’s busiest animal hospitals and rolling up her sleeves to help save the life of a young kitten Saba who has fallen from a balcony.
