THREE-year-old cat Whiskas is our pet of the week.

Owner Lorna Ward, of Chisworth Close, Leigh, has had her since she was six weeks old.

The 33-year-old said: “She is a lovely, sweet-natured cat who loves nothing more than sitting on my knee and having cuddles and getting lots of attention from her mummy.

“She is kept as an indoor cat so I know she is safe.

“Whiskas loves playing with her toys, including her laser pen toy. She is chilling out in this picture after spending half an hour playing with it at home in the living room.”
