February 22, 2001 9:29: HERE is a Forest that some Star readers might be able to fit in their home.
Three-and-a-half-year-old Forest was born with special needs after his mother developed an infection leaving him with a stumpy tail and a mobility problem.
The tom cat is currently being looked after by the South Bucks RSPCA which is urgently seeking a special foster home without children or other animals to give him a second chance in life.
Pat Edgar, from the South Bucks branch, said: "He's grown up to be a lovely, affectionate cat but is unable to jump or climb trees and fences like his counterparts and is a bit unsteady on his back legs.
"He cannot run very quickly to escape from difficulties so he is better suited to a quieter, indoor life."
The foster carer would be responsible for his food and daily care while the charity would contribute towards any future vet's fees resulting from his mobility problem.
Forest is house trained, neutered and microchipped.
