Chancellor-George-Osborne-Reunited With Cat Who Disappeared- Three Years-Ago


Nice surprise: The Chancellor and his family had given up hope of finding Freya after she went missing three years ago
Downing Street has a new resident – the long-lost cat Chancellor George Osborne and his family had assumed has vanished for ever.


Tabby Freya was just a few months old when she went missing from the Osbornes’ Notting Hill home three years ago.
Mr Osborne, wife Frances and their two young children Luke and Liberty searched the streets of West London and put up ‘lost’ posters, but to no avail.
They gave up hope long before moving into Downing Street last year, assuming the cat had got lost – or worse, been run over.
So they transferred their affections to the family budgie, Gibson, named after RAF Dambusters hero Guy Gibson, and two goldfish.

But two weeks ago, Frances, an author, received a phone call telling her Freya was alive and well.
She had been living as a stray in a garden a few streets away from the Osbornes’ Notting Hill house, lovingly fed and looked after by a neighbour who had not seen the posters.

Freya, looking particularly well-nourished, was reunited with the Osbornes after a visit to a vet revealed a microchip beneath its skin bearing Mrs Osborne’s phone number. 
A few days later, Freya, looking fit and healthy, was installed in Downing Street. 
This time, they took no chances, keeping Freya indoors until she could get acclimatised to her new surroundings.

Neighbour: The Camerons' cat Larry (pictured) is getting on well with Freya
The Osbornes live in the flat above No 10, which they moved into more than a year after the 2010 Election, while the Camerons live above No 11.
Before Freya was let loose in the garden, one vital matter  had to be dealt with: a formal introduction to Larry, the Camerons’ cat.
Fortunately for all, the fur did not fly, and yesterday Freya was allowed outside.
A Treasury spokesman said: ‘She is settling in nicely and getting on well with family, staff and Larry.’
