Remember Larry the cat? The Downing Street cat who is also the chief mouser at the Cabinet Office is again in the news for his latest accomplishment or what can be said as a major victory in scaring off an intruder at the door of 10 Downing Street. A video of the same has now gone viral on social media where Larry can be seen stalking a fox who prowls on the famous street and further chases it down the street. The video of the cat was captured on camera and he seemed quite proud of his achievement!
As shared by Sky News on their Twitter handle, the Downing Street cat can be seen standing brave as always as he further in a display of courage takes on his ‘critics paws’ on the intruder. This also led to a brief clash between both the hostile animals as they fought for territory outside the Prime Minister’s house to finally end up with the victory of the 15-year-old tabby, who was half the size of his counterpart.
Watch the video here:
In the one-minute video, Larry can be seen slowly stalking the fox as it moves towards the number 10 door further retreating into the bushes. Continuously keeping a watch on the fox, Larry, while making sure that the animal is nowhere near the area, pounces on him and further chases it down the street.
Notably, the video has gone viral and grabbed the attention of the people. With over 1 million views so far, the video has received thousands of likes and comments.
