UK Larry the Cat-New Pal at N°10?

[shyvas]

''The new PM asked No10 staffers if they would be happy to get a pet dog for the building and
the response was a resounding “yes” according to one source.

The insider said: “It wouldn’t be a puppy. It would probably be a rescue dog. It would have to be a cat and dog that got along.”
Boris’s girlfriend Carrie is a well-known dog lover.''

I don't know how Larry will react to having a pooch as a lodger/pal ? He certainly has been a star during these last few years. All the
reporters and Political editors always try and get a shot of him during their news reports.
There was one commentator who said that she
would willingly adopt Larry if he didn't get on with the new PM's pooch.

I wonder whether they will get on. After all Larry has been in the spotlight for a number of years.

Interesting timing! Let's face it, this is 'covfefe' - a distraction tactic.

"To think our little 'wonky' pup started his life in a Welsh puppy farm and was destined for an uncertain existence at the hands of a puppy dealer, but is now going to be with people who absolutely adore him is a dream come true.

This little man will want for nothing in his life, what could be better than that?
"And how fantastic to be raising the profile of rescue dogs everywhere in the process!"

Great work FOAW !

Poor dog.

Yes!

Wasn't there another cat at Downing Street at one point?

 

[shyvas]

Yes!

Wasn't there another cat at Downing Street at one point?

Do you mean one that was there before Larry ? That does ring a bell.

BTW I hope that both Larry and Dylan are the best of friends. They both deserve a loving home. Poor Dylan was unwanted and
most probably would have been euthanised.

I love Larry!

I love Larry!

He's gorgeous and always gets a lot of attention from both the visitors, MP's and all the press.

 

[KLS52]

Dylan is adorable!

Haha, I’m late to the party.

Dognap worthy.

 

[KLS52]

Dognap worthy.

Totally! I still get the urge to adopt a dog every now and then. I think it would be great for the cats, LOL. At least for the first few months. I think he would help keep them entertained and that they would leave me alone a little bit. They are exhausting, still.

Dilyn in Welsh means to follow or to succeed.

I remembered the other cat was called Palmerston and he and Larry kept fighting with each other.

Just like BoJo and Corbyn ?
