Moggie cat-ches bus

A cat has stunned bus drivers by commuting on a busy route most days for three months.

The mystery cat jumps on the No 331 service in Wolverhampton and rides it two stops down the road before leaping off near a fish and chip shop, reports The Sun.

Since January, the cat - nicknamed Macavity by drivers - has caught the bus three times a week and always gets on and off at the same spot.

Driver Bill Khunkhun, 49, said: "As soon as I open the doors he jumps on. He seems to like it."

Passenger Paul Brennan, 19, said: "The cat sat at the front, waited patiently for the right stop and got off.

"It was quite strange at first but now seems normal. He is the perfect passenger. The only problem is he never pays."

Travel West Midlands, which operates the service, said: "The cat certainly knows how to use buses and is a regular traveller on the 331."
