Casper, the commuter cat

"A cat has become such a well-known user of a Devon bus service that its drivers know where to let him off."

It's nice to have a pussy that can find its own way home. ;)

How cute! I wonder whether Tiddles was able to take a bus? :?

Maybe he rode along with Mrs. Slocombe and Mrs. Axelby when they went to The Green Man (I think that's the name of the pub)?

That cat is very smart.

Unfortunately, there's a sad end to Casper's story...today's British papers are reporting that he was killed by a hit-and-run driver. :(

Hearing that made me sad. He sounded like a character.

R.I.P. Casper and may that hit and run driver rot in Hell.

It's awful, and this story has had a fairly big impact in the local area. Accidents happen, but to drive off afterwards is awful. Poor Casper.
