Freya (cat)

Freya (* April 2009) is a cat wearing since 2012 under Prime Minister David Cameron the title of Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office.

Background

The tabby cat Freya belongs to the British Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne and his family.

2009, when Freya was only a few months old, she disappeared from the plot of the family from Notting Hill. After an extensive search, the family gave up hope. In June 2012, however, was Frances Osborne, wife of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the cat again. They then moved back to the family in the 11 Downing Street.

Freya as a mouse-hunter

2012 David Cameron dismissed the Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office, the cat Larry, and replaced him because of his laziness by Freya. However, it turned out that the situation had not improved, so did Larry Cameron continue to serve. Together they are now both the " Supreme Mouse Hunters of the Cabinet ."

On October 16, 2012 There was a scuffle between Freya and Larry. However, a spokeswoman for the Prime Minister said that they could live together and it would give it no special consequences.
