An 84-year-old woman from Impington had an unwanted visitor after her cat brought a snake into her living room.

The elderly woman, who struggles with mobility issues, needed police assistance after the peculiar call.

Although the UK is only home to 3 types of native snakes, it is likely her cat had found a grass snake which are widespread throughout Cambridgeshire.

She'll have a slither of hope it doesn't happen again!
