A CAT who bears an uncanny resemblance to some of the silver screen's biggest stars is on the hunt for a new home.

Sammy, who is currently living at an RSPCA branch in Lancashire, has an unusual beauty spot on his top lip which has caused staff at the shelter to liken his appearance to that of model and film star Marilyn Monroe.

Branch manager at RSPCA Flyde Liz Rawson-Hall said: “It’s not only girls who have beauty spots, this good-looking boy has one on his top lip.

“Sammy is a lovely playful boy who is still young enough to be a kitten but old enough to be sensible. He likes to have a stroke and cuddle but will play with his toys with you or independently."

Eight-month-old Sammy came in to the shelter with a jaw injury his owners were unable to get treatment for.

He has since had an operation and is recovering well.

The shelter have said that Sammy prefers to be the only cat in the house and needs a family who can give him the love and attention that he needs.

Ms Rawson-Hall added: “He deserves a second chance at happiness as he is such a lovely cat, I know the perfect family is out there for him. Hopefully someone will realise he’s beautiful inside and out.”
