Larry Takes Charge

 

The Reshuffle Continues - Except for One Post

 

Power Play at Number 10

 

Dilyn Nicking Larry's Food

 

The Prime Minister's dog (Dilyn) has allegedly has been caught sneaking into the room where fellow pet Larry the cat’s food bowl is kept – and gobbling up the contents.  

A Downing Street insider has now said Dilyn has been seen eating Larry’s food several times – although his behaviour is thought to have improved recently. However, a Government source insisted the allegations were ‘totally untrue’.

Larry's Lockdown Paunch

 

The Mirror reports that Larry has been to the vets for a check up, and has been found to have put on 0.5kg during lockdown.

As such, Number 10 staff have been told to cut down on treats for14 year old  Larry. 

A memo sent to No10 staff warned: 

“Larry…has put on 0.5kg in lockdown so likely too many Dreamies. Please can we reduce these?”

Seemingly Larry was “noisy in the car, but remained dignified once in the vets - even whilst having his temperature taken in a place he wasn’t expecting.”

The memo noted that upon his return from the vets, Larry immediately went to “flirt” with the press - who did not notice a small shaved area on his neck where blood tests had been taken.

Larry’s heart, lungs and body are sound and there was no sign of heart, kidney or liver disease.

However, vets said his remaining teeth will have to come out soon.

 

Happy 10th Anniversary Larry - The Number 10 Cat

 

I arrived in Downing Street exactly 10 years ago today. It’s felt like my housemates have been intent on making a mess of things since then, but hopefully I’ve provided some stability. Time to get to work on the second decade!#Larryversary

The key thing to remember is that I live here permanently, the politicians just lodge with me for a bit until they’re fired. They all work out sooner or later that it’s me that runs the place... #Larryversary pic.twitter.com/5QJhZrrE5D

Larry at Number 10 - The Book

 

The Londoner reports that Larry the Downing Street cat is to be immortalised in children’s picture-book form. 

The mouse-hunting moggy will star in Larry at Number 10 by Elizabeth Radcliffe, who tells us she’s been “a really big fan of Larry for a long time — he’s got such personality. When Dilyn [the No 10 dog] came on the scene I had an idea for the story... Larry gets his whiskers put out of joint.” The book, which is planned for later this year, will reveal all.
