Purr-fect! New stamps capture cat quirks
The Royal Mail issue of eight stamps features the animals grooming, stalking, playing, sleeping, staring and stretching.
Royal Mail is launching a new set of stamps featuring images of some of the most popular breeds of cat in the UK.
The eight stamps show the animals grooming, stalking, playing, sleeping, staring and stretching.
Cats shown on the stamps are Siamese, tabby, ginger, British Shorthair, Maine Coon, black and white, Bengal, and tabby and white.
Royal Mail worked with author and animal expert Tamsin Pickeral on the issue.
David Gold of Royal Mail said: “These beautiful stamps showing cats being cats show why, as a nation, we are besotted with them.
“Their enchanting, independent and quirky ways are perfectly captured in these images that all animal lovers will adore.”
