Inside Charles and Camilla's state dinner: King and Queen enjoyed lobster ravioli and salmon with Champagne as part of eight-course feast in Nairobi No one seems to have taken much notice until it was too late; vets' efforts to put him on a diet were defeated by continual overfeeding by his fans. The result was that he became grossly overweight, at a maximum in 1982 of 32 pounds (14.5 kg). He died the following year aged 13, having been almost literally fed to death, although the actual cause of his death was fluid on the lungs. It was a sad end, and he must have been a sad cat when in that state of obesity. I would like to think that these days we are more enlightened and such a situation would not arise, now that we know more about the effects of obesity on animals. Abbey Clancy, 37, enjoys a family day out to Thorpe Park with rarely seen lookalike sister Elle, 26 Jason Momoa is 'beyond happy' that his stepdaughter Zoe Kravitz is engaged to his 'best friend' Channing Tatum Owen was the ginger-and-white station cat here on the Wirral. In early 2017 he was reported to be about 17 years old and was thought to have been at the station for some 14 of those years; it was his home and he was very much loved by the staff and passengers, seeming to brighten up everyone's day. He liked to spend most of his time in his little cat kennel outside, but he came in for food frequently during the day and to see all the friendly faces he'd come to know over the years. Passengers made frequent donations, so his vet's and food bills were always covered; there was even a little tin in the booking office with his name on for donations, which was almost too heavy to move! The full-time staff loved him dearly and treated him as though he was their own, and feeding Owen was one of the duties on every shift!His paws were severely injured, burned, and suffering from rotting and degloving - so he could make very little movement. Thought to date from the late 1930s, this was Tiddles, the cat at Newport railway station in south Wales, pictured with a new litter of kittens and a couple of her staff. Staff at the station, including, Shaun Smith, Great Northern's station manager, have become fond of the feline. Drag queen Courtney Act reveals thereason she was 'so grumpy' behind the scenes on The Masked Singer Australia: 'It takes all the fun out of it' From at least 2010, Warminster station in Wiltshire had a cat called Casper, who although he didn't live there but in a nearby home, spent a lot of time there and enjoyed 'meeting and greeting' travellers. Sadly he died in March 2016, having reached the grand age of 22.

The station was closed to regular traffic in 1964 and gradually became derelict. However, in 2012 it was rebuilt and train services were resumed. There were calls for a new memorial to the cat to be installed, and in November 2015 a new plaque was unveiled. A sculpture was also commissioned and that, fashioned from Preseli bluestone by local sculptor Darren Yeadon, was publicly unveiled in January 2017 — a fitting tribute to the long-dead feline.
