Cat ‘Luca’ sleeps in his basket as a waitress serves some food to customers in Vienna’s first cat cafe May 7, 2012. After three years of negotiations with city officials over hygiene issues, Austria opened its first cat cafe last Friday. ‘Cafe Neko’, “Neko” meaning cat in Japanese, was opened by Vienna resident Takako Ishimitsu, 47, from Japan. Customers can stroke and interact with their five feline hosts, named Sonja, Thomas, Moritz, Luca and Momo, who all came from an animal shelter and now freely roam about the cafe and take naps.

Julia Keddie, an RSPB member from Richmond in Surrey, stumbled across a blue tit that chose to build its nest in a peculiar place - an emergency life jacket at Kew Gardens. She says: Fingers crossed nobody will fall into the lake during the rest of their nesting period; if they do there’ll be some very unhappy birds.  Picture: Julia Keddie/RSPB/Rex Features
