Larry the cat

Few felines hold an official designation, but Larry, the rescue cat living at 10 Downing Street, is one of them. Upon his adoption from the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, the now 12-year-old cat was bestowed with “Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office,” a job given to him by former British Prime Minister David Cameron.

Though Larry’s position and home have remained the same under Britain’s new prime minister, Theresa May, he is often labeled “Lazy Larry” in the British tabloids, due to his poor skills at catching mice.
