Banksy’s Sixth Artwork, a stretching Cat, is already taken Down

The sixth Banksy in one week, which showed a silhouette of a cat on an empty billboard in London is being taken down.

Banksy posted a photo of the stretched cat on his Instagram on Saturday without any caption, the sixth in a series of animal-themed artwork over the last week.

The new work is in north-west London and follows his most recent artwork of pelicans appearing to take fish from a chip shop sign, which was revealed on Friday.

It has been confirmed the latest artwork is being taken down by a contractor in case someone "rips it down and leaves it unsafe". The billboard had been due to be taken down on Monday before the artwork was there.
