Mike (cat)
Mike (February 1909 – January 1929) was a famous cat who guarded the gates of the British Museum and whose fame was such that ''Time'' magazine devoted two articles to him on his death. E. A. Wallis Budge's work describing the life of Mike has been viewed as the zenith of such biographical writing.〔("Animals: Budge on Mike" ), ''Time'' magazine, 30 January 1930, retrieved 16 June 2009〕
==Early life==
The house cat of the Museum taught the young Mike to stalk pigeons by pointing like a dog to the intruder. Under the kitten's guidance the house cat would proceed to corner the pigeons, daze them, then bring them to the house keeper, who would exchange the bird for a morsel of food and milk, and release them unharmed.〔
