(Rummaging in my archives, I found this from 2007, which is one of my favourite posts on my old site Psipook. I just thought I’d give it another outing.)

It is heart-warming to see that the Prime Minister Gordon Brown has installed a cat at 10 Downing Street.

The prime minister’s official residence has been without feline charms for ten years. The last cat Humphry was fired and replaced with a bird table by Tory Blair.

The new moggy Sybil arrived auspiciously on September 11.

So, a new cat has arrived at no. 10. But they are yet to evict the dogs of war.
