The Lawyer newspaper reports that assistant gardener Nanette Hudson issued a plea when the feline did not arrive for breakfast as usual one morning, and she feared a cat-napping.
Greedy guts
In an e-mail sent out to chambers, Ms Hudson said: ‘Hunter, the garden cat, has not appeared for breakfast this morning. If anyone has seen him, either today or any time over the weekend, or knows where he is can you please let us know. This is completely out of character as, being a greedy guts, he never misses breakfast.’
Following Hunter’s safe return, Ms Hudson informed worried barristers: ‘We’re none the wiser as to where he has been and what he’s been up to, but he is unhurt and hungry…no change there then.’
An Inner Temple spokesman quipped: ‘Catastrophe has been averted.’
