A kitten has been found on a London Underground train.
The tiny ball of dark fur – thought to be just four weeks old – was handed in to staff who passed her on to the animal charity Blue Cross.
Veterinary nurses cleaned up the young cat, who was found on Monday at about 21:00 BST, covered in a sticky substance.
They named her Victoria after the central London area where Blue Cross has an animal hospital.
Because the kitten is so young and should be feeding from her mother, the nurses have been hand feeding her and providing round-the-clock care.
Victoria is doing well, the charity said, and will be transferred to its rehoming centre in Lewknor, Oxfordshire, next week.
