AN adorable kitten from Cats Protection Warrington has a new home after finding fame in a television advert.

Nacho the cat was filmed for the People’s Postcode Lottery advert when ambassadors Danyl Johnson, an X-Factor star, and Judie McCourt, a radio and TV presenter, came to visit the adoption centre in Padgate.

He appears alongside big celebrity names, including actors Carey Mulligan, Olivia Colman and George Clooney.

Since the advert propelled him to stardom, it was no surprise that Nacho quickly found his forever home with his brother Dorito thanks to new owners Dave and Kerry Hudson.

Dave said: "Nacho is now called Ernie and his brother Dorito is now Bert.

"We didn’t choose the cats, they chose us.

"Straight away they were playful and loving with us both- it was the best decision ever."

Cats Protection is one of the charities supported by players of People’s Postcode Lottery, who have so far raised more than £500 million for charities and good causes.

This includes £2.2 million for Cats Protection to help them find cats like Nacho new, loving homes.

Dave continued: "Ernie is very patient and playful, he waits for his brother to finish playing with toys before he has a go.

"He’s so loving, always after cuddles and strokes and is very inquisitive, loves guests and loves exploring.

"Bertie is a bit more quiet but seems to be the mischievous one, climbing, knocking things over and getting into places he shouldn't!

"They are best friends and play all day.

"They sleep together and won't let each other out of their sight.

"They both settled in immediately- there are three children in the house so they get so much attention and are having a ball."

Lindsay Kerr, Cats Protection’s Warrington Adoption Centre manager, said: "We’d like to say a huge thank you to People’s Postcode Lottery players for their support which is funding cat care assistant and volunteer team leader roles across Britain, as well as 10,000 microchips and two behaviour posts, helping us offer the best possible care to cats and kittens like Nacho while they await new homes."
