Morgan becomes patron of a cat charity

Diane Morgan has officially become a cat lady – becoming patron of a small pet rescue charity in the south Wales valleys.

The Motherland and Philomena Cunk star recently visited Moggies Cat Rescue in Aberdare, run by friends Eileen Sewell and Doreen Miller.

She said: ‘‘They’re working so hard to provide injured or unwanted cats with shelter and medical help. They rely solely on donations and their kindness is truly heartwarming.’

‘Growing up, I had a cat called Merlin who was my whole world, so I have a real soft spot for cats.’

The charity takes in cats after their owners are taken into hospital, stray and injured cats, and cats whose owners can no longer afford veterinary bills.

Rehoming manager Nikki Scarf told Welsh news website Nation.Cymru  that  Morgan ‘was overjoyed to hear about all the work we do. She’s very hands on, she wanted to make a fuss of and interact with the animals’.
