Larry (cat)
Larry Cameron is the 10 Downing Street cat and is Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office. Larry is a brown and white tabby, believed to have been born c. January 2007.
First year in Downing Street
Larry is a rescue cat from the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home and was chosen by Downing Street staff. Media speculation had raised the possibility of a new feline arriving in Downing Street after rats had been seen on two occasions behind television news correspondents reporting live, with a Downing Street "pro-cat faction" having apparently won the argument. The cat is also intended to be a pet for the children of David and Samantha Cameron. After moving into Downing Street, Larry immediately courted controversy by taking a swipe at ITV News reporter Lucy Manning whilst being required to pose for a news item.
He has been described by Downing Street sources as a "good ratter" and as having "a high chase-drive and hunting instinct". Soon after he was taken in at Downing Street, a story ran in the press claiming that Larry was a lost cat and that the original owner had started a campaign to retrieve him. However, the story was later revealed to be a hoax, and no such owner nor campaign existed. David Cameron has said that Larry is a "bit nervous" around men, speculating that, since Larry was a rescue cat, this may be due to negative experiences in his past. Cameron mentioned that U.S. President Barack Obama is an apparent exception to this fear: he said, "Funnily enough he liked Obama. Obama gave him a stroke and he was all right with Obama." Unlike his predecessors since 1929, Larry's upkeep is funded not by taxpayers but by the staff of 10 Downing Street. Fund-raising events to pay for his food are believed to have included a quiz night for Downing Street staff held in the state rooms. Larry's exploits and observations on life at Number 10 became the subject of a weekly cartoon in The Sunday Express drawn by cartoonist Ted Harrison.

Lay Your Hands
by: Vaya Con DiosMUSIC: W. Lambegt/D. Schoufs
LYRICS: D. Schoovearts
He said baby, what's your name
Are you new in this town?
Since you walked in things don't look the same
How about sticking around?
The place was dark and the band played loud
His voice sounded kind of dry
He said: who's that guy with the funny smile?
She said:
He's just a friend of mine (x 3)
They talked a little, drank a lot
As the evening went by
The place got crowded and the air too hot
He said: who's that guy following us about?
She said:
He's just a friend of mine (x 3)
He was nice and gentle, still rough enough
To keep her satisfied
She said: hold it baby, it gets too much
I feel like I'm gonna die
He took her home in the early mornin'
She said: please do come inside
He said: who's that guy in the dressing gown?
She said:
He's just a friend of mine (x 3)
He said who's that guy in the dressing gown
She said baby don't you mind
He's just a friend, just a friend,
He's just a friend of mine
