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…

LARRY THE CAT

11 October 2022

12 October 2022

Larry is a domestic cat who serves as Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office of the United Kingdom at 10 Downing Street, having been appointed in 2011.

He is a brown-and-white tabby, believed to have been born in January 2007.

[daguerreotyping]

Cabinet card of "BEAUTY," the Male Chick-Rearing Cat, 1889. As the back of the card enthuses:

This remarkable animal has been exhibited to at least a million of people, and no person has ever claimed to have even heard of a cat like him. It is really believed that his counterpart does not exist in the world.

At three months of age he had not seen a chicken. Immediately on being shown to him they were adopted, with every sign of affection that a cat or hen could show for their young, brooding and caressing them, and eating and playing with them. In no case has he shown hostility, never having bitten or scratched a chicken, never drawn blood on one; yet he possesses a full complement of the sharpest teeth and nails, is a great mouser, would kill other birds instantly, is exceedingly active and more than ordinarily playful for a cat of his age.

When we reflect that young birds and fowls are the legitimate prey and food of the feline race, and that this is a male cat, (males being more ferocious and destructive than the females, especially in this species), it must be conceded that this is an extraordinary freak of nature.

He has been admired by and has delighted multitudes of people, and it is hoped that many thousands more may see him. At this writing, (Oct. 15th, 1889), he is just two years old, and has been exhibited twenty-one months, having been placed on exhibition within one week from the time his extraordinary peculiarity was discovered.

It is only fair to state that he has a fine general disposition, his only other peculiarity being an unusual stubbornness; yet he will bite and scratch vigorously if provoked, but never can be provoked by his feathered little ones.

We presume that the large money offers his owners have received for "Beauty," exceed in amount any offer ever before made for an animal of his species; but it seems to them that no amount of money could be offered that would purchase him, for, besides being of great commercial value, he would be most sadly missed by those who have had his care from kittenhood, and to whom he has endeared himself by his wonderful intelligence, strange affection and lovable ways.

He delights all who see him; but none really know him save those who are constantly with him. Employees and and attaches of the various museums where he has been exhibited have invariably become so attached to him as to really deplore his departure at the close of our engagements.

"Beauty" lives in almost regal style, everything being done for his comfort that is consistent with show life.

He is a full maltese, weighing about thirteen pounds.

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*
