Meet Larry, the Downing Street cat

Meet Larry, one of the most furr-midable felines in the UK. He’s lived at 10 Downing Street, the UK Prime Minister’s residence, since 2011 and holds the title of Chief Mouser of the Cabinet Office - the fourth feline to fill the role.

The brown-and-white tabby has served under three UK leaders - David Cameron, Theresa May, and currently, Boris Johnson - and has been a near purr-menant fixture at top-level diplomatic meetings.

Australian photographer Justin Ng has become known for sharing pictures of Larry on social media, but the cat is an influencer in his own right: he has a strong social media presence, with over 392,100 followers on Twitter alone.

And if British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Twitter feed is anything to go by - the leader was quick to post a photo of himself with the famed feline following his election - Larry appears to have successfully clawed his way into the latest UK administration.
