People struggling to live on the dole while also caring for their furry friends, including 33-year-old Sheffield woman Billie, who claims more than £5,000 a year and shares her one-bedroom council home with an astonishing 32 pets. Rugby husband and wife Kim and Gary claim £900 credit per month, but with debts of at least £2,000, they face the heart-breaking choice of losing either their home or some of their five pets.
