Shelter cat with "unique" eye still searching for a forever home with someone who loves her the way she is
By Mike-Ross
All animals, regardless of their physical appearance, deserve to be cherished just like any other. Regrettably, many of these distinct-looking creatures are often overlooked by potential adopters due to their appearance.
Take, for example, a charming cat with a "unique" eye who is currently in search of a forever home with someone who will appreciate and love her unconditionally.
Meet Lily, a delightful 6-year-old domestic long-haired cat. Although she was born blind in her left eye, it poses no health concerns and gives her a uniquely cross-eyed appearance:

She has been in the care of Paws and Whiskers Charity (PAWS), a rescue in Sussex, England, since her owner was no longer able to keep her. PAWS has been trying for a while to find Lily a home, but no one has taken her yet — possibly due to her unique looks.
But the shelter says Lily is a great cat, and her unusual eye only makes her even more special: “I think her quirky eye adds to her beauty,” Lynda Humphrey-Stack, PAWS director and Lily’s foster, told ITV.

Lily’s eye causes her no health issues, but because her vision is impaired she will need a safe, secure area away from busy roads. She is also happy to stay indoors. “She is understandably wary of sudden movements on her blind side so her new family must bear this in mind,” PAWS wrote on Facebook.
They also said that Lily “doesn’t know any different and adapts to new environments amazingly well.”
Lily can live in a home with other cats or dogs and children of any age: she’s gotten along with with the kids and other pets in her foster home. She is also neutered and almost toilet trained.
Lily is truly a wonderful cat who would bring joy to any household. We sincerely hope that someone can see beyond her "wonky" eye and open their hearts to this beautiful feline.
If you happen to be in the area and are considering adopting Lily, you can easily fill out a PAWS application form.
