Red cat named Stubbs is a local celebrity in Alaskan town of Talkeetna. He doesn’t play in the movies and he is not a famous person’s pet. For 15 years Stubbs has been the town’s mayor.



In 1997 Stubbs won the elections in the town of 900 people as a write-in candidate and has been an honorary mayor since then. Most of the time Stubbs hangs out in the local general store, where he eats cat food and meets with his voters.
