Join me, fellow cats, in welcoming the latest world top cat.... Nico Carney of Canada. Yes, he is Purr Minster, the owner of Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney.
If you take a look at his Twitter feed you will see that he has been recently consulting Larry, Britain's top cat in number 10 Downing St. Apparently they talked about tariffs.
I can reveal the real truth of those conversations... not about tariffs at all but about the stresses and strains of managing prime ministers. Larry had good advice for Nico.
Why? Because Larry has outlasted some of the worse prime ministers Britain has ever had. The roll call is David Cameron (who dissed him for not catching mice), Teresa May, Boris Johnson (who imported an incontinent dog to no 10), Liz Truss (whose term was shorter than a lettuce), Rishi Sunak (who didn't have a chance after the last two) and now Starmer.
No wonder Larry is looking rather old and tired after that.
But we wish Nico well. It's tough at the top. Don't let Carney get away with anything.
And, purrlease, if you meet JD Vance who dislikes women with cats, bite him for me. You can leave Trump alone - at least he is a carnivore.
