Meet Millie the Bengal cat, who was promoted to security guard for some of the UK's best-selling toys after she was spotted trolling the factory floor.

"We are expecting a bumper year this Christmas with orders starting to fly in from retailers putting in their requests, including new boys action toy releases for Ben 10 and Power Rangers," a factory spokesman said. "'With the appointment of Millie the security cat, our toys are now very well protected."

Millie's owner weighs in on her cat's success: "Millie has always had a very vigilant personality and doesn't mind long hours alone."

Millie will be paid in cat food and fish.
