Political battle: The claws are out between Downing Street cats Larry and Palmerston

Downing Street cats Larry and Palmerston have had their "most brutal fight yet" according to a political photographer who is urging Downing Street to "take responsibility" for the spats.

Fur flew as the two clashed yet again on Downing Street, according to Steve Back who said Larry lost a collar during the latest encounter with Palmerston, the Foreign Office's 'Chief Mouser'.

Mr Back runs the Twitter account Political Pictures, which has been documenting their fights.

He told The Telegraph: "It was utterly appalling, the fighting has been going on for weeks and weeks. This morning I was there covering normal political events and suddenly Palmerston appeared from the foreign office.


Awww, Larry and Palmerston, you two need a truce.

1. Obviously, Downing Street needs to call in Former Pres. Carter.

To facilitate a detente. The sooner the better.

Or, maybe Whats-his-name, the "My Cat From Hell" guy.

2. They should have a bucket of water near the front door.

It's too dangerous to get between two fighting cats. Those claws are like multiple knives leaving long cuts down your arms and legs.

3. a very good idea, maybe a squirt gun too

It sounds like the fighting is getting really bad.

6. Yup. Breaking up a cat fight is like sticking your hand in a cuisinart.

An angry cat is basically a hairy chainsaw.

4. WE HAD 3 CAT FIGHTS LAST WEEK. Taffy is the instigator and she is a bad girl.

I bet she could best Larry and Palmerston in a cat fight. She is our alpha girl and doesn't take poo from any cat.
(we have 5 indoor cats)

5. TAFFY THINKS SHE IS ALL THAT

I WILL SHOW HER DIFFERENTLY; yes INDEED

7. Taffy is full of herself !! Our cat thinks she is the CAT'S MEOW.
