Introducing Peggy's new cat Hilda Ogden!

Peggy's hairdresser Fabrice has broken up with his partner and moved to a no-pets apartment. And that is why his cat Hilda was looking for a home. Nothing to do with her being the cat from hell. Nope. Definitely not.

Hilda immediately melted Peggy's heart and came home with her to The Lodge. And she's been drawing everyone else's blood ever since.

She's also made an impact on Archers fans - 'Hilda Ogden' was trending during the Sunday Omnibus and within hours of arrival she had her own Twitter fan account.

So... welcome to Ambridge, Hilda!

Isn't she darling?

Peggy insists that reports of Hilda's erratic temperament have been wildly overplayed...

But we've put a call in to Felpersham General A&E to ensure an adequate supply of tetanus injections... just in case

And if Hilda needs extra feline company? Well...

Bill (RIP) despairs...
