and live on Freeview channel 276
Lucifer, a fluffy black and white tabby, has spent the past three months being looked after by his foster mum, Carys Raie, a nail technician from Walton, after being found eating from a bird feeder.
It took Lucifer, who was named after the feline in Disney’s Cinderella, four weeks just to come around to Carys when he was staying in her back garden.

He is now fit and healthy and Carys is looking for someone to take him in for good.
She said: “Around 12 weeks ago, we saw a post about Lucifer eating from a bird feeder on Facebook. So, we told the lady that if they could catch him, we would take him in as I’ve got a patio outside where he can stay, as he is used to being outside.
"At first he would not let anybody go near him. It took him four weeks to allow me to get a stroke from him.

"We then took him to the vet to be checked over, to get him neutered and microchipped, just in case he ever gets lost again.”
Lucifer, who Carys estimates to be between five and seven-years-old, needs a home without small children and dogs as he doesn’t understand them. He could live with other cats but would prefer not to.
Carys added: “We were feeding him eight and nine sachets of wet food just to get his health back on track but now he is like a little lion.

If you are interested in adopting Lucifer, contact Carys via email at [email protected]. A home to check to see if your home is suitable for Lucifer will be carried out before the adoption.
