City s-licker ... striker Mario Balotelli strokes Wimblydon
MARIO BALOTELLI is doing his bit for homeless animals in Manchester.
The Italian striker has taken a shine to a stray cat called Wimblydon who is a frequent visitor to the Manchester City training ground.
Animal lover Mario, who enjoys visiting zoos and wildlife parks, now makes daily checks on the ginger moggie, which has been allowed to roam the complex for more than a decade.
A source said: "Mario loves Wimblydon and would love to take him home.
"Every day he comes in and makes sure the cat has come in to training and been fed.
"He was quite bemused at first that a cat was allowed to roam the grounds but it appeals to his sense of humour.
