No 10 Downing Street Cat

Larry came from Battersea Cats and Dogs Home a few years back. When I went there to rehome a cat I noticed they have a blue plaque on the pen where he stayed whilst at the Home!

Haven`t you noticed, the door to number 10 always opens without anyone having to knock, presumably they have a camera set up, so the cat gets the same treatment as visitors?

Maybe he has his own footman, whose job is to watch and let him in. Or maybe he has a chip in which signals when he is getting close.

Given that Larry has a reputation for attacking lady reporters they were probably watching in horror from behind the curtains willing him to not do anything nasty on camera.

Yes Tegan, I noticed that, the door opening a bit and the cat running inside and wondered how they knew to open the door.They need a cat flap in the number ten front door!

Well, it was only Cherie...not the whole lot of 'em!

for identification purposes he (humphrey) was black and white

downing street cat was 'Humphrey' until nulabour ousted him hope he went to a good home

I know it was years ago as Ana correctly pointed out, but I know which one I would rather spend an afternoon with

Supposedly he didn't get on with George Osbornes cat, Freya [who was a better mouser] but Freya was hit by a car and has moved away so he's now top cat [although Osborne now has a dog called Lola]. I can't believe I've been missing out on all this.

It has an official job, chief mouser. I wonder if it's going to get a payrise.

Wasn't there a number 10 cat years ago, but Cherie Blair didn't like cats so it had to be rehomed? Perhaps it's moved back in...

Oh; it appears that it must be Larry who has previously taken a swipe at one news reporter .
