  • The cat stepped perfectly into its own footsteps, giving it a comic gait 

Cats are renowned for not liking to get wet – and a fluffy feline in West Yorkshire proved he was no exception in a comic video.

Owner Aimee Coulton, 26, from Wakefield recorded her pet, called Little Cat, keeping his paws dry in the snow by stepping in his own paw prints.

His swaggering gait as he picked his way indoors wouldn’t be out of place on the catwalk.

The footage shows Little Cat, walking 20 feet back to the house as hairstylist Aimee calls him. 

Posting the video she remarked: ‘My clever little boy.’ 

She shared the footage today after Britain shivered through its coldest February night for more than six decades with temperatures plunging as low as -23C. 

The lowest temperature in England and Wales was at Ravensworth, in north Yorkshire, which was recorded at minus 13.1C.  

With their thick fluffy coats Ragdoll cats are quite tolerant of cold weather, experts say. 

The breed, bred in California in the 1960s from a Persian cat queen and a Birman tom, are laid back cats and devoted pets.

However, their friendly nature means they do not have great ‘outdoor skills’ and are not adept at defending themselves against predators.
