When I first layed eyes on the video below, my thought was that cat sitting at Downing Street 10 would be just the assignment for me! The picture of ‘Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office’ Larry, with his cute little patriotic bow tie on, made my cat mother heart melt. On top of that, it would look pretty good on my CV! The video showcases all cats in function since the very first one, in 1929!

However, that the function in not merely a formality, or a blast from the past, turns out to be the case at 8.40 minutes in the video. This is where I opted out, someone else can do the honors for me!
