A white cat nicknamed Macavity (after a
T. S. Eliott poem) after it has started using the No 331 several mornings a week.
The cat "gets on the bus in front of a row of 1950s semi-detached houses and jumps off at a row of shops down the road which include a fish and chip shop."
Bus driver Bill Khunkhun said,
"...I had seen it jump off the day before I carried on driving and sure enough when I stopped just down the road he jumped off - I don't know why he would catch the bus but he seems to like it. I told some of the other drivers on this route and they have seen him too."
