JUMP-SCARE OF MY FUCKING LIFE

(Let's pass over whether this was to distract the media from item 1 on that search list; nevertheless my immediate reaction to the potential news of Larry's death confirms my opinion that we could probably replace the constitutional monarchy with a cat and get the same service for a lot less money)

“What an interesting Wikipedia page” you might say to yourself. “I wonder who this Humphrey was”

The ninth cat to serve as Chief Mouser at 10 Downing Street. I may not love much about being British, but I will always Stan Downing Street having a Chief Mouser. They are always adopted, beloved by the press, and do an important task. They’re also an excellent visual focus when waiting on a prime minister to actually say something important.

And like Larry here, current Chief Mouser, they can look awfully dashing in professional attire.

I gatti dimostrano di avere un'assoluta onestà emotiva (Ernest Hemingway)

Se non fosse per un azzeccassimo regalo che ha ricevuto mio marito per il suo compleanno, non avrei mai trovato questo libro. Difficilmente l’avrei scovato sugli scaffali di una libreria e tanto meno online.Il mio amore per i gatti mi ha portato nel tempo a leggere parecchi libri su questi meravigliosi felini, sempre bellissime storie con un’unico protagonista e del suo rapporto con chi ha avuto…

Professional Courtesy - (2023)

“What do you mean exactly by ‘Larry has a better salary than you’?”

“Larry works at Downing Street, Gregory. His position as ‘Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office’ makes him, consequently and undeniably, your superior. Hence his high salary…and his Tier 5 Security Clearance as well.”

“Tier 5?! Are you kidding me?! Mine is only Tier 3! How?”

“Because you are a DI and he works for the Prime Minister, it is as simple as that.”

“He doesn’t ‘work’, Mycroft. It's a cat, and a pretty fat one at that! He doesn't do anything except for sleeping all day and stretching his paws in front of the press. And he's spending more time on our sofa snoring in front of Peppa Pig than catching mice at Number 10.”

“I would be grateful if you could go easy on the body shaming. You know that Larry is extremely sensitive about his body. So, that kind of language won't be tolerated. *sigh* And, as you well may know, things are getting pretty complicated at Downing Street at the moment. Welcoming Larry is just professional courtesy between civil servants.”

“Yes, my love, professional courtesy. I’m sure it has nothing to do with you being an absolute cat dad, but keep telling yourself that.*cronch*

A big thank you to @vegetadaily for the beta 💗

Well, I Now Know Who I Am Voting For On Treason Day!

At least they're honest.

FYI Larry is the Chief Mouser To The Cabinet Office, basically a cat that lives on Downing Street.

Also, will we be seeing you out on The Hustings, @dalekpropaganda?

Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office

You might not be aware that the funniest and arguably most wonderful fact about Britain is that here in Britain, we have a Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Officer. It is rumoured that the first cat hired officially for such purposes was idea of Henry VIII (many centuries ago).

Look at this handsome fella. His name is Larry!

Larry the Cat! 🐈 The most famous resident at number 10

Larry is the cat seen waiting patiently outside Downing Street. As the U.K. awaits a new prime minister, one feline was also patiently waiting to be let into No. 10 Downing Street.

Larry, Britain’s mouse-catcher-in-chief and long-time resident at the leader’s official residence was pictured waiting outside the famous black door early Friday, after a Dramatic Night in British Politic, But one thing will remain the same, with the most famous resident, Larry the Cat! 😼

Larry (born c. January 2007) is a British domestic tabby cat who has been serving as Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office at 10 Downing Street since 2011. The feline favourite has been there for years and years, long before formers PM Liz Truss and Boris Johnson, and he is a familiar face that people like to see outside Number 10.

Larry is a civil servant and not the personal property of any one individual. Larry is 17 years old, so no one would try to take him away from his stately home or government duties now.

If Himiko is a cat in a human body, I think the perfect country for her to be born would be England: considering her killer instinct, they'd immediately offer her a position as Chief Mouser at some ministry or even that of Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office.

And people claim that politics isn't for them
