Meet Larry/The Government House Cat Who Has Accompanied 6 British Prime Ministers

The United Kingdom has experienced a series of political changes over the past 10 years, but one resident of the government building 10 Downing Street has remained untouched by the turmoil.

Larry the Cat continues his long tenure in the Cabinet Office, in a remarkable tenure that has included six prime ministers.

Since arriving at 10 Downing Street in February 2011, Larry has become one of the most well-known and beloved figures associated with the UK government.

Originally adopted by Battersea Dogs and Cats Home to tackle a rodent problem at the Prime Minister's residence, the cat has evolved into a global celebrity and a symbol of continuity amidst political change.

Over the years, Larry has shared time in Downing Street with former prime ministers David Cameron (2010 to 2016), Theresa May (2016 to 2019), Boris Johnson (2019 to 2022), Liz Truss (49 days between September and October 2022), Rishi Sunak (2022 to 2024) and Starmer (2024 to 2026). /CNA
