Dexter the cat has claws out in mayoral race as he takes centre stage in Randwick

AUSTRALIA’S first cat candidate, Dexter, will be mingling with other Randwick City hopefuls on Saturday, vying for the illustrious title of world’s first feline mayor.

The cat stars in Chariman Meow, a film by International Film School Sydney students.

Dexter will interact with political candidates this weekend during the local government election, with scenes being filmed at Randwick Town Hall and during Randwick City vote counting.

Chairman Meow writer and director, Paul Dobson said: “the real election day was simply too good an opportunity to pass by and with almost no budget for the film it would have been impossible to recreate a realistic setting for the film.”

“I am also thrilled that officials at Randwick City have a sense of humour.”

The comedy is about a corrupt property developer who has bribed the local mayor to win approval for a new shopping mall.

To stop the development, a Swiss spinster decides to nominate her cat, Chairman Meow.

The cat wins media attention and wins the election, becoming Australia’s first feline mayor.
