Such great acting, if I didn’t know any better I’d say that there are no thoughts behind those eyes

Hah, as if a cat has any notion that it’s not exactly where it was ordained to be: atop all social, economic, and religious structures.

Nobody tells cats what to do.

Downing Street officials are preparing a “media plan” to announce the eventual passing of Larry the cat.

Larry has become a widely loved fixture of Downing Street and is often seen outside the door to Number 10 during major political events and news broadcasts.

The 17-year-old ‘chief mouser’ is thought to be in his final years, having already outlived the average lifespan for a tabby cat.

While one source said that, at present, Larry is “doing OK”, another said: “We felt it had to be handled so sensitively.”

An extra fun fact:

The cat, who was adopted from Battersea Cats Home, was first brought into Downing Street by David Cameron as a pet for his children and has since outlasted five prime ministers.

Are you forgetting that he stepped down? The beginning of the end.

Outlast 5 prime ministers isn’t really an accomplishment as the cat has been living there for 17 years, but thinking about it more makes me realise it should be at most 3 prime ministers in normal time, and one even lose to a lettuce.

Larry isn’t a young cat. Steps need to be taken to ensure continuity of government.

It’s a little reassuring to see that Starmer makes the cat’s hairs stand on end too, not just mine.

Always trust a cat.
