Surrey: Adventurous cat takes train into London from Weybridge

Tilly's owner says she has also gone to a school and a pub in Weybridge in the past.

An adventurous cat had to be collected from London Waterloo station by her owner after taking a train into the capital from Surrey.

Michael Hardy, from Weybridge, says his two-year-old cat Tilly is known for straying, having caught buses before and even climbing behind the bar of his local pub.

Even so, he was taken aback when he received a call from a ticket office worker about Tilly’s 17.7-mile (28.5km) trip into the city.

Mr Hardy said: “What the hell is my cat doing in Waterloo getting on trains and going for a ride?”

    “Hello Sir, I have your cat. He’s been a very cheeky chappy.
    Also, he’s not in possession of a ticket, or validated oyster card, so needs to pay a £60 fine before I can release him”

    Pathetic. My cat did 40.7 miles in a random builders van before being discovered.

    The cat is either…

    1. Trying to go on sabbatical

    2. She just doesn’t like what Mr. Hardy does at home

    3. Going into town to get Mr. Hardy a girlfriend

    4. Heading to the capital to file a food bowl complaint

    I could use a couple more decimal places on the distance travelled. I mean—how far exactly did the cat go?
