TRIBUTES have poured in for the King of Enmore – a much-loved black and white cat that occupied a street corner on Newington Rd.

Bunches of flowers, cards and notes adorned his corner after he was hit by a car.

Resident Tami Longhurst said King had been around the area for 15 years, yet six years ago his owner moved away and left him behind.

“He was (then) adopted by various neighbours – there were cosy beds in different doorways, everyone fed him and he always returned to bask on his corner and greet passers by,” she said.

“When you picked him up he had a habit of putting his front legs around your neck like a child. He had many friends (and) people came from surrounding suburbs just to spend some time with him.”

“He was always in the same area every day and I think there is a lot of traffic that goes along that road and goes to the bus stop and he would come along and greet someone and always have something to say and make a fuss,” she said.

“King had a great impact on the people that knew him – he was a loved member of the Enmore community and will be sorely missed,” she said.
