AN Inverness woman was shocked to discover her kitten with a "stash of weed".

The cat owner couldn't believe her eyes as the pet spat out what it appeared to be a lump of cannabis from its mouth.

It came as the 1-year-old puss returned home from a stroll around the west of the city.

Everything seemed normal as the little cat nestled back down on the couch beside his owner.

But as the kitten got himself cosy, he spat out "a stash of cannabis".

Sharing a snap of the apparent drug find, his shocked owner said: "So my kitten just came in the house with this in mouth.

"Sorry if someone is missing their stash."

And the woman told how the cat didn't seem to be effected by its discovery.

"Luckily he's doing absolutely fine.

"He's had plenty of water now and the vet gave him something to be sick just in case."
