Freya (c. April 2009 – 4 August 2022) was a cat who was employed as the Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office from 2012 to 2014 as the pet of the chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, and his family.

Freya went missing from the Osbornes' house in Notting Hill when she was just a few months old, and after searching West London for her, the family assumed she had died or had become lost.

On 16 September 2012, Nigel Nelson from The People reported that the prime minister, David Cameron, had sacked Larry from his position as chief mouser to the Cabinet Office and installed Freya instead.

[1] Nelson explained: The final straw came on Thursday when Mr Cameron caught Larry cat-napping on his chair in his No.10 study as another mouse scurried across the room.

When he tried to wake Larry to do his duty one eye opened but the moggy wouldn't budge.Cameron drafted in Freya to patrol Numbers 10, 11 and 12 Downing Street as she was a "tougher" and a "more street-wise predator.
