In 2017, things weren’t looking too good for Tony, 71, and Deb Pearce, 63, of Essex, England.
That is until they start feeding the black cat that keeps visiting them at home.
A black cat brings good luck
Tony was no longer able to work due to illness and the two got along indebted. Furthermore, they even feared that they might have to sell their house.
My he gatto nero Billy he has no idea about all of this – or maybe he has his credit in what’s to come? – Because just when things get really tough for Tony and Deb, luck strikes the pair.
Lottery win
The two win National Lottery well 1,000,000 British pounds (almost 1.2 million euros)!
And of one thing the couple are absolutely convinced: Billy the cat was theirs lucky charm.
It’s like a miracle for Deb:
“We were able to stay in our house and even renovate it, so now it’s our dream come true.”
But that’s not all, the two embark on long-awaited trips and buy a second home in Norfolk, where they particularly enjoy spending time with their families.
And finally they also have the opportunity to celebrate the wedding they have always dreamed of.

Of course, the lucky charm Billy also benefits from the huge wealth. Sometimes Deb even wonders who the real grand prize winner is when he cuddles her furball.
Because the timing of the victory is also perfect for Billy, who is probably 8 years old. The cat suffers from diabetes and must follow a strict diet.
“We even do backflips if her dietary needs require it,” jokes Deb.
In fact, Billy is a bit picky and doesn’t want to eat the same thing for more than a few days!
