Pay? No, I’ve got a puss pass

Cat rides the bus for free by hopping on and off at his local station… making 10-mile journeys on passengers laps

Dodger climbing aboard

Dodger, the ginger tom, has found a way to get round the tiresome business of walking anywhere, by hopping on  the bus!

The 15-year-old cat sits on bemused passengers’ laps as the bus makes round trips of up to ten miles from Bridport to Charmouth in Dorset.

Dodger is familiar to regular bus passengers and drivers, but Mrs Jeanes still receives several calls a week asking if she has lost a ginger cat.

He is such a regular passenger that some of the drivers take tins of cat food to feed him. They even know which stop to let him off at so he can return to his home and owner Fee Jeanes.

Another bus-hopping cat, called Casper, died last year after being hit by a car while crossing the road to board the No.3 service in Plymouth.
