An unloved, one-eyed tiny kitten with half a nose has found a new home.

The ginger puss – called Benny – was also born with a cleft lip.

It means he only has one nostril which makes him a loud snorer.

He is also FOUR times smaller than his brother, Teddy.

Benny, six months, was born with just one eye, which means he’s a bit clumsy.

He and the grey moggy, Teddy, were found by a dog warden after being abandoned by their parents.

The RSPCA took them in and then found Sam Dye and Hannah Grimwood who wanted to adopt them.

The pair of brothers are inseparable despite being different sizes and Benny finds it harder to see.

Benny and Teddy were found at a house in Slough, Berks, last September.

They were cared for at the RSPCA’s Bedfordshire South branch, in Ampthill, as reported on What’s The Jam.

Sam and Hannah live in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, and have a menagerie of needy cats so they fit right in.

Their three other felines are Charlie, a seven-year-old female cat, Tony, who is completely blind and rescued from Dubai, and Merlin who was adopted from Cats Protection.

Sam said: “They’re wonderful cats, really spectacular.

“We definitely made the right choice and they have settled in so well.”

He joked: “We live on a farm so there is plenty of room.

“If I could have more I would but there’s not enough room in the bed.

“They all sleep on the bed with us, in between me and my partner.”

Sam added: “His size or having one eye doesn’t seem to impact Benny too much but he is a very loud sleeper as he only has one nostril it can get quite blocked up.

“Benny is still the most active out of all of our cats. He is the first one to start playing and the last one to stop.

“He does struggle with depth perception so he can jump on things okay now but it took a while for him to be able to jump on the bed, and he struggles to jump up on the kitchen counter.

“He has grown loads but still looks like a young kitten.

(Jam Press/RSPCA)

“He now looks like the age he should have looked when we first adopted him, and his brother Teddy is easily now four times the size of him. He towers over him!

“They are all friends, it’s the happiest family, I couldn’t ask for anything else.”
