M@ 11 Famous London Cats
A stray that shot to fame. Number 10 s notorious chief mouser. A church cat that (maybe) predicted the Blitz. London has known some truly phenomenal felines over the years. Here are some of our favourites.
1. Dick Whittington s Cat
Four-times Lord Mayor Dick Whittington is inseparable from his cat in popular imagination. Unfortunately, there s no clinching evidence that the moggy existed outside the pantomime tradition. Still, the nameless cat is enshrined in two statues (that we know of) in London: one on Highgate Hill and another outside Guildhall Art Gallery.
2. A Street Cat Named Bob
