Кот главы британского МИД пробрался в резиденцию премьер-министра и был выдворен оттуда

Boris Johnson inherited a new feline colleague at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office as well as his new role in the Cabinet - and his cheeky streak appears to have rubbed off on the cat.
Palmerston took his Downing Street ambitions further by sneaking in to Theresa May's new residence while no one was looking.
The black-and-white cat, who was appointed Chief Mouser to the Foreign Office earlier this year after being adopted from Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, was unceremoniously evicted by police officers.
He then sat outside the building, looking furious - and even appeared to have a stand-off with a police officer. (с)

Шелковица хитро растет, на нашей стороне и наверху ягоды крупные, на тех ветках шо на улицу - мелкие. Правильное дерево

Жить можно

Под домом тусует большой пушистый черный кот, мордой немного похожий на Grumpy Cat'а.
Я его подкармливаю, но осторожно, т.к. кот обладает большой массой покоя и может сбить с ног, бросившись за едой.
Сегодня, как ни удивительно, вынести было нечего, поэтому был смочен в бульоне кусок хлеба. Кот понюхал, обиженно поднял глаза - мол, а нормальной хавки не нашлось? - но делать нечего, слопал.

Cats recognise their owners' voices but never evolved to care, says study

...A new study from the University of Japan has confirmed this, showing that although pet cats are more than capable of recognising their owner’s voice they choose to ignore them - for reasons that are perhaps rooted in the evolutionary history of the animal.

...When hearing their names’ being called the cats displayed “orientating behaviour” (moving their heads and ears about to locate where the sound was coming from) and although they showed a greater response to their owner’s voices than strangers’, they declined to move when called by any of the volunteers.

...Recent genetic analysis has revealed that the common ancestor of the modern housecat was Felis silvestris, a species of wildcat that first came into contact with humans around 9,000 years ago. As early societies developed agriculture, these cats moved in to prey on the rodents that were attracted to stores of grain. In the words of the paper’s authors, they effectively “domesticated themselves”.

“Historically speaking, cats, unlike dogs, have not been domesticated to obey humans’ orders. Rather, they seem to take the initiative in human–cat interaction.” This is in contrast to the history of dogs and humans, where the former has been bred over thousands of years to respond to orders and commands. Cats, it seems, never needed to learn.
