A stray cat that took to loitering around a caravan dealership was taken in by the firm’s big-hearted owners and now has its very own luxury tourer to live in.
Unlike most Bailey Orion 430-4s, however, the feline’s new home measures just three foot long and boasts a single fleece-lined bed.
Staff at Cosford Caravans in Albrighton, Shropshire began feeding the cat – which they rather unimaginatively named Cat – when it first turned up and it very quickly became a regular at the dealership.
Cosford owner Mervyn Hughes then mentioned Cat to Bailey director Nick Howard during a meeting and didn’t think anything more of it, but days later a cat-sized Orion 430-4 arrived on the doorstep.
“It turned up with a message saying ‘something for the cat to sleep in at night in comfort’,” he told the newspaper.
“I must admit I was a bit amazed. In my 28 years here, I have never seen anything quite like it. I was amazed it was made from scratch so quickly.”
Last year, a cat called Banjo from Sussex spent months living 250 miles away in Wales before being reunited with her owner after stowing away in a neighbour’s touring caravan.
