It may seem like a joke to some but a cat, Felix, has been named the official Senior Pest Controller at Huddersfield train station. The black-and-white cat was also given a new high-vis jacket and a name badge by TransPennine Express.
It’s understood that Felix the Huddersfield station cat, has been working at the Railway Station since 2011, catching mice, making friends with commuters on a daily basis and getting paid in cat treats. Felix even has her own Facebook page with over 4,000 followers.

Chris Bamford, a Customer Services Assistant at the station, said: ‘The promotion is just a nice appreciation of Felix’s work. It is a reward for nearly five years of service. Her presence just brings a smile.
‘She can often be found on the concourse just sitting on a podium next to me during the busy periods. The morning commuters just glance at Felix and it brings a smile out of them.
‘Felix is part of the family here, although she does like to think that she runs the place.’
