Cat running for mayor of Mexican city...
 

A cat has been elected to run for mayor.

Morris has been put forward as the citizens' candidate for elections taking place on July 7.

If Morris were to win, he would become the mayor of Veracruz state capital Xalapa, in Mexico.

His campaign slogan is 'Xalapa Without Rats', and he currently comes second of the four candidates with the amount of 'likes' his Facebook page has gathered.

According to his campaign, Morris insists that although he is likely to cause a mess on a regular basis, at least he will cover it up and not leave it lying around for everyone else to clean up.

He also lists his weaknesses as "quilts, sheets, pillows, couches and clothing in general".

Hope he wins.

Meow too:D.

..hmm, that's paws for thought...

good luck to him

He really is a puuuurfect candidate.

Polls are close apparently, might go down to a whisker.

..that would be catastrophic, Shaun...

I've heard the polls have opened up a bit in the past hour with Morris falling behind but not to worry he might claw it back

Ah good, he really is the cream of this crop of candidates.

He'll be getting lots of pussy if he wins

These puns are making me want to kill myself, I'm sorry.

don't let us stop you

..I'm sorry Patrick, but you just should try to be more pawsitive about them...

Really, there's no need for such a hissy fit.

It'd be a real CATastrophe if you did something rash, Patrick

Is this fur real?
