This ginger feline first came to the campus when he was about a year old. Now many years have gone by, he's still seen on campus almost every day.
Students adore him and absolutely love it when the ginger cat hops in their lap or gives them some snuggles.
He helps the students relieve stress at exam times and hangs out with them if they need somebody to talk to.

This laid back, mellow cat loves to laze around in the sun and mind his own business. But his favorite place to frequent is the library. Students come to him when they need help with their studies or look for some moral support.
"It became almost a routine and took away the stress from everyone a bit," a student said.

The Campus Cat has a home close by and is well loved and cared for. The owner has been known by the school for many years.
He just loves to be around students and it makes him happy to nap in their lap and cuddle with them. Nothing can keep him away from being with the students.
