  1. Hollywood movie filming inspires kittens' names

    Four kittens born at the Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter have been named Harrison, Ford, Indiana and Jones, inspired by the latest Hollywood blockbuster being filmed in the region.

    Their mum, Miley, was brought into the shelter as a heavily pregnant stray in March and the kittens arrived five days later.
