The world mourns as Huddersfield’s senior pest controller leaves paw prints on hearts worldwide
In a poignant turn of events, Huddersfield Station bids farewell to its iconic cat, Felix, renowned as the station’s senior pest controller since 2011. The news of Felix’s peaceful passing on Sunday evening has left a void in the hearts of admirers and the station team who cherished her presence.
Felix, along with her feline companion Bolt, became local celebrities and even found their place in two bestselling books. The dynamic duo, listed on the Sunday Times Bestsellers, served as more than just pest controllers; they became symbols of joy for visitors at Huddersfield Station.
A tribute posted by station manager Angie Hunte on Facebook shared the heartbreaking news, saying, “It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Felix.” The message described Felix’s peaceful departure and extended gratitude to those who had been touched by her companionship.
“We will miss her dearly. We please ask that if people would like to leave their words of sympathy, they comment on this page and refrain from visiting the station,” requested Angie Hunte.
The station team plans to organize a fitting tribute and memorial for Felix, but they emphasize the need for time to process and grieve this profound loss. Rather than launching an official fundraiser, they suggest supporting the 2024 Felix and Bolt calendar or donating to an animal charity in Felix’s name.
The news of Felix’s passing prompted an outpouring of tributes from people worldwide. Admirers, like Juliana Glanfield and Rosemary Berry, expressed their sadness and extended condolences to the station team. Martin Hutchinson acknowledged Felix’s ability to bring joy, stating, “Her memory will live on.”
Station manager Angie Hunte reflected on Felix’s impact, saying, “Her presence brought smiles to visitors from around the world, making Huddersfield Station a special place.” She encouraged those mourning Felix to honor her memory by contributing to charity, keeping alive the spirit of the beloved feline icon.
