This political creature hopes to be grinning like a Cheshire Cat on election day.
A cat named Morris is vying for the position of mayor in Xalapa, the capital of Veracruz state in Mexico.
Presented as the citizen’s candidate for the July 7 election, he comes equipped with a paw-full of policies.
With the campaign slogan ‘Xalapa Without Rats’, his promises mirror those of other politicians – implying minimal action apart from napping and taking life easy.
His Facebook campaign page emphasizes that while he might create a mess on occasion, he will at least tidy up after himself instead of leaving it for others to deal with.
It seems his promises resonate with voters, as his Facebook page boasts more ‘likes’ than three of the four other main candidates in the race.
While Morris admits to a fondness for ‘quilts, sheets, pillows, couches, and clothing in general’, his supporters are hoping he won’t turn into just another fat cat if he secures victory.
