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?"

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
