Catmando
Catmando (1995–2002; also spelt "Cat Mandu"〔(HOWLING LAUD HOPE Pt 7 - Catmando (Cat Mandu) - The real spelling ) YouTube, 30 November 2010; retrieved 1 December 2010〕) was a cat who served as joint leader of Britain's Official Monster Raving Loony Party (OMRLP) from 1999 to 2002, along with his owner, Howling Laud Hope. He is the only cat ever to have led a political party.
==Political career==
Following the 1999 death of the party's founder, Screaming Lord Sutch, the OMRLP held a leadership election with Alan "Howling Laud" Hope (who was then the party's chairman and deputy leader) and Catmando as the only two candidates. The vote was a tie, with Hope and Catmando each receiving 125 votes. Hope, as the party chairman, had the deciding vote, and decided that he and Catmando should serve as joint leaders. 〔Stall, Sam (2007); ''100 Cats Who Changed Civilization: History's Most Influential Felines'', pp.69,70. Quirk Books. ISBN 1-59474-163-8〕〔(Loonies choose cat as joint leader ), BBC News, 24 September 1999〕
As joint leader, Catmando oversaw the greatest electoral performance the OMRLP had seen to date, fielding 15 candidates in the 2001 general election. Catmando served as joint leader until his death as a result of a traffic accident in July 2002. Hope then became the party's sole leader.
Following Catmando's death, the party proposed that there should be cat-crossings at all major roads.
