5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

He’s been voted the world’s best kitten - but could he become the world’s overall favourite cat in just a few weeks’ time? The feline in question is Mowgleaves Stonehenge, known at home as Stone. Mowgleaves is a breed known as American Shorthair and is joint owned by Steven Meserve and Vikki Moran. He’s up against Russian rival Rumfold Such, a Flirt Shu-Ko, in the International Cat Association Champions League, with just weeks to go before the season ends. Mowgleaves is only 11 months old, but his owners have already spent £25,000 on travelling with him to shows. Steven told 5 live: “He’s a really sweet cat. He loves everyone and he’s a real character.” On whether Mowgleaves will claim the crown he said: “We are definitely hopeful.” This clip is originally from 5 live Drive on 1 February 2017.
