The woman is limiting herself to one meal a week in order to ensure her cats have enough to eat.

Yasemn Kaptan, 46, consumes mint tea for breakfast, lunch and dinner on most days of the week due to her financial limitations. The woman, from Tottenham in north London, said that she is only able to eat one meal a week composed of barbecue vegetables such as peppers, onions, and salad. Over the past year she has lost five stone due to her dietary choices, and is unable to spend her stay-at-home carer allowance on anything other than her cats, which she considers to be part of her family. She stated, "I don't have any money to spare--but I can't let the cats go. They have grown up with us. I have had them since they were little babies. I paid a lot of money to have them, they are at the end of their life. it really isn't fair to let them go. If I eat it has to be something soft like yoghurt or vegetables. I cry every other day, I am trying to be happy with myself but I am down and tired."
