Cats Protection, the UK’s largest cat welfare charity, submitted plans to turn a unit on Haggs Road, on the edge of Pollok Country Park, into a cat rehoming centre.

Council planning officials have given the proposal the go ahead.

A supporting statement said that the charity is changing its model, from basing its rehoming centres in rural locations to urban areas, where transportation links are better.

The centre will serve the Greater Glasgow area.
