What is the name of Queen Elizabeth II's cat?

Queen Elizabeth II received a Siamese cat for her wedding and named it "Corsham Royal Boy." http://www.tiny-pals.com/traditional%20siamese.htm Are you referring to Sybil, who in 2007 was named Chief Mouser in 2007? Although she is the "first cat" at 10 Downing Street, she isn't actually Queen Elizabeth's cat, rather she is "officially" employed by the Queen. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sybil_(cat) Jul 27 09, 10:15 PM

Everything I could find never mentions her getting another cat, just all her corgis. I doubt Royal Boy is still alive since QE2 got married in 1947! Jul 28 09, 12:16 AM

I'm wiling to bet that Corsham Royal Boy (the first, at least) isn't around Buckingham Palace any more, or he would be recognised as the oldest living cat in 2005, not a mere whippersnapper of 38! http://www.cat-world.com.au/CatRecords.htm Jul 28 09, 12:18 AM

This Buckingham site paragraph presents a real possibility that the Queen has a number of personal cats: The Royal Mews (No, it isn't where the Queen keeps the royal cats) on the south side of the palace is worth a look if you have time. Here is where the collection of Royal carriages are kept. http://www.hotels-london-hotel.com/buckingham-palace/ But what are their names? Jul 28 09, 6:40 AM
