The interwebs are buzzing about a British cat who hops on the bus every day at the same street, then jumps off at the next stop. Clearly, it's an escaped lab cat whose souped-up brain is ideal for solving the mysteries of public transportation. British tabloid The Daily Mail did a full investigation:

The feline, which has a purple collar, gets onto the busy Walsall to Wolverhampton bus at the same stop most mornings - he then jumps off at the next stop 400m down the road, near a fish and chip shop.

The "bus cat" is probably an escapee from the program, desperately trying to get back to his home but getting waylaid by his desire for fish and chips. Won't somebody please think of the community health cats of Wolverhampton?
