Where is Larry the Cat ????

Haven't seen any sightings of him during all the tv coverage .

Has he given up and moved out - after his now 6 th family in the last 14 years ?

I know the chat is that the Starmers may not move in completely to No 10 or even No 11 and retain their own home elsewhere .

What happens as well if the new incumbents also have a cat or even worse a dog ????

Where is Larry ????

He was definitely there. And at one point was sitting outside the closed door and when it was opened for him just ignored it like all good cats and sat there until the police man (after counting a good 10 Mississippi's) closed it again.

At which point he wanted to go in.

Larry isn't any Prime Minister's cat, he is Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office.

The Wiki page is great - covers all cats who have filled the role, including a timelines:

Larry's tweets are hilarious. Apparently he had a shit in Sunak's shoe 'just for old time's sake' 😂

Which is quite funny as I suspect my cat is a Tory. Very much sneering at the woke dog, who is welcoming to all. The cat peers down on us all in open contempt at our life choices.

I suspect my cat is on the right wing of the Tories or possibly Reform.
He's not keen on any incomers and can't imagine has much time for "wokery".
He doesn't much like change so I reckon his paw was on the Tory X in the recent election.
Just realised he's spending his first days under a new government, I'll give him an extra squeezy treat today to show him it's not all bad.

Oh good idea. Bit of bribery. Might settle him down and then he can go back to knocking things off the shelf to show his superiority to the dog, who can't even get near the shelf ( probably because he is a workshy scrounger).

My cat definitely has an air of Priti Patel about her, she even does the 'look' and thinks she's far superior to her brother, sadly the other is a bit of an Ed Davey always wants fun and games.

An elderly relative of mine is a big fan of Larry and he/his team sent her a "signed" photo for a significant birthday, with a note signed by Sunak reporting on Larry's lifestyle preferences. It's a whole thing.

I pity the puppy trying to get to the top of the pecking order in that household.

We've decided that our cat is probably a Laurence Fox type Reform voter. He just seems the type, and he's very keen on snooker and golf on the telly (apologies to any left wing snooker/golf fans)

I think Larry has been looking a little tired lately. Getting a tad scruffy, as do we all with age.
Keir and Larry need to start succession planning...

He was just waiting by the door while they were putting the England bunting up.
