Henry the cat has become a local celebrity after turning up to work at a charity shop every day for a year.
The friendly feline even has his own Facebook page after becoming a well-known addition to the team at the RSPCA charity shop in Pinner.
The cat, who lives with his owners in Love Lane, is found waiting for the shop to open at 9.30am every morning.
Staff let him in and he sits on the counter for the rest of the day greeting the customers.
Shop manager Pip Rowe said: “He’s such a clever little cat. He knows exactly when we open and is always there waiting for me.
“He has his own grey cushion on the counter which he sits on, and he has breakfast with us in the morning.
“He’s so friendly and loveable, and lets anyone stroke him. He’s the town’s little celebrity.
“He is like royalty here, sometimes he will have a bit of a run around and see what’s in the shop but then he just goes back to sitting on the counter, awaiting his public.
“I don’t know why he chose this store, but he’s probably just trying to help his fellow animals, and people are more generous with donations if he is sitting on the counter. It’s certainly a bonus for us as people come in to see him – he’s an asset to the shop.”
She said his owners know he spends the day at the shop and he goes back home at the end of every day. The three-year-old tabby also has a twin brother called Hugh.
