Meet Meet Nanny McPhee… the ‘one of a kind’ cat with TWO noses who is on the lookout for her forever home
- The moggy has been named Nanny McPhee because of her distinctive nose
A homeless cat with two noses has been described as a ‘one-of-a-kind’ feline by an adoption charity.
The double-snouted moggy has been named Nanny McPhee after the fictional film character with a distinctively shaped nose.
And now black and white four-year-old is on the look out for a forever home after her previous owners had to give her up.
Described as a ‘gentle lady’, staff at Warrington Adoption Centre didn’t realise she had two noses until she was checked over by a vet.
Thinking she just had a really big snout – they were amazed when the check-up revealed her unique facial feature.

Centre manager Lindsay Kerr said: ‘We have all fallen in love with our one-of-a-kind Nanny McPhee. We can’t stop looking at her two noses!
‘She has proven to be a gentle lady who adores a fuss and a cuddle and we are hopeful her new-found fame will mean she will have no shortage of potential adopters.
‘She really does deserve a home where she can settle down and become the centre of a loving family.’
The adorable moggy was taken to Warrington Adoption Centre after previous her owners could no longer care for her due to ill-health and financial circumstances.

Staff at Cats Protection’s Warrington Adoption Centre say the cat’s two noses are ‘a real rarity’ – and they have never seen a pet like Nanny McPhee before.
Senior field veterinary officer at Cats Protection, Fiona Brockbank, said: ‘A cat with two noses is a first for us in the Field Vet team.

‘This is a real rarity and, thankfully, it isn’t causing her any problems at all.’
She added: ‘Other congenital malformations within that area of a cat, such as a cleft lip and cleft palate, are not uncommon and can either be inherited or due to incident whilst developing in the uterus.
‘Like all of our cats, Nanny McPhee will be neutered before rehoming so any concerns about inherited problems are resolved as she won’t have kittens.’
