The master of a Cambridge University college that banned dogs from accommodation has been allowed to keep his canine companion after persuading officials it was "a very large cat".

YoYo the bassett hound lives at Selwyn College with Roger Mosey.

Mr Mosey said cats were allowed but dogs were "technically" banned.

However, after a past master set a "dog-owning precedent" decades ago, the college "tongue-in-cheek agreed YoYo could stay as a large cat", he said.

Mr Mosey, former editorial director of the BBC, became master of Selwyn College in October.

After settling in he asked permission from the college council to have a dog, despite the rules.

'Love your cat'

"Many former masters have kept cats but the greatest master, Professor Owen Chadwick, did keep dogs during the 1950s, 60s and 70s," he said.

Permission was granted by the council, and duly noted in the minutes: "i. College Animal - Noting precedent under the mastership of Professor Chadwick, Council approved the Master's request to adopt a Very Large Cat in the Master's Lodge."

For a while, Mr Mosey said, when he left the lodge with YoYo, he was greeted with calls of "hey, I love your big cat".

YoYo, a rescue dog, has now featured in publicity material for a veterinary course and other college material.

"Students call her 'the college dog' and I very much want her to become part of life at Selwyn," Mr Mosey said.

劍橋大學塞爾文學院禁養狗，而院長卻經過一番努力，得以將其愛犬以“大貓”的身份留下。

悠悠和她的主人羅杰·摩西（Roger Mosey）現住在劍橋大學塞爾文學院。

摩西說，這里“原則上”禁止養狗，但是可以養貓。

他還補充道，幾十年前，這里的一位院長開了“養狗的先例”，所以學院現在只好“睜一只眼閉一只眼地讓悠悠以貓的名義存在”。

摩西曾是BBC（英國廣播公司）的編務總監，自2013年10月起任劍橋大學塞爾文學院院長一職。

盡管知道學校有禁止養狗的制度，他還是在就職之后向校務委員會提出了在學校養狗的申請，

“愛你的貓”

“歷任院長有許多養過貓，但歐文·查德威克（Owen Chadwick）這位大師的確在上世紀50年代至70年代間在此養過狗。”摩西說。

摩西提出的申請得到了許可，但是校務委員會注明：“鑒于查德威克在任期間開了先例，校務委員會特此批準羅杰·摩西院長在院長宿舍收養一只體型較大的貓。”

摩西說，曾經有一段時間，他帶著悠悠在外時，大家都跟委婉地對他說“嘿，我真喜歡你的大貓”。

悠悠是一只搜救犬。如今她還常常出現在學校印發的獸醫學宣傳資料及其它學校資料上。

摩西說：“學生們親切地叫她‘學院狗’，我也非常希望她能成為塞爾文學院的一部分。”
