You'll have heard of Greyfriar's Bobby in Edinburgh. Well this is St Andrews' Hamish McHamish!
Hamish was a ginger cat who lived in St Andrews. He came to fame after the publication of a book entitled Hamish McHamish of St Andrews: Cool Cat About Town. Visitors to St Andrews apparently sought to be photographed with Hamish. He even built up a following on social media, with a dedicated Facebook page and Twitter account set up by fans. He has also appeared on BBC's The One Show!
He died in 2014, of a chest infection, and the funding of the statue in Logies Lane was raised by a public donation campaign.
