    Maybe thay would have better luck getting her adopted if they changed her name?

    The six-week-old cat - which was abandoned at the roadside - earned the moniker because of her distinctive black moustache.

    Staff at Wood Green animal shelter in Godmanchester, Cambs., say they are struggling to find her a loving home because of her unusual markings.

    Spokeswoman Tara Dundon said: ''Kitler is an adorable little girl who will make a wonderful addition to the right family. She is really playful and a typical sweet kitten.

    ''We rehome five and a half thousand animals every year but we cannot find a loving owner for Kitler. We think her unusual markings are putting people off.

    ''She is not a specific breed and we don't know where her black and white patches came from because we have no idea who her parents are.

    ''We think Kitler was either dumped by someone who didn't want her or couldn't look after her or she could have been a wild cat who was left by her mother.

    Staff at the centre nicknamed her Kitler after noticing that the black markings on her top lip look like the Nazi leader's moustache.

    However, hundreds of people visiting the centre looking for a pet have ignored Kitler and chosen more conventional looking kittens instead

    I rescued a kitten last week, was in my shop woodpile for a couple of days. When it came over to me when under my ZAV I gave her some attention and she was so friendly I took her home to my MIL who recently lost her 16 year old companion.

    Both are very happy

    Great name for a cat. Some of them seem have that kill them all attitude.

    If the Brits are so Hitler-phobic, why don't the nitwits at the shelter just change the name?

    Besides, the kitten only has one-half a stache and I've never seen a pic of Adolf after a shaving accident.

    I don't see the issue I would totally have Kitler in my home as long as he didn't act like his namesake. After all you could always just call him/her Eric for short (in honor of Eric Cartman's Holloween costume)

    I don't like cats or Hitler, but I'd adopt that.

    Could either of those cats exterminate mice?
