When Larry The Cat Snubbed Mitsubishi Boss Outside 10 Downing Street

A Japanese businessmen didn't get the warm reception he would have hoped for when he reached 10 Downing Street for a meeting with UK Prime Minister Theresa May. The frosty welcome was not meted out by Theresa May or any of her staff but a certain feline employee of Number 10.

Kazuo Okamoto, CEO of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Europe, was just about to enter 10D when he spotted Larry, UK Cabinet Office's Chief Mouser, casually chilling outside. The Japanese executive turned around to give Larry a friendly pat but had to settle for just a wave as Larry darted off to avoid Mr Okamoto. Cold!
