To find the cache:

Tibs the Great was the British Post Office's "number one cat" and kept the post office headquarters in London completely mouse free during his 14 years of service. He was the son of Minnie and on his death several newspapers ran an obituary. Cats had been officially employed by the Post Office to catch rodents since September 1868 when three cats were taken on for a six month trial period at a rate of one shilling per week in the London Money Order Office. On the date 7th May 1869 it was noted that "the cats have done their duty very efficiently". By the year 1873 the cats were being paid 1s 6d and cats were being employed in other post offices. In the year 1953 Tibs was featured in a book titled Cockney Cats by Warren Tute and Felix Fonteyn. He also appeared at a "Cats and Film Stars" party. Warren Tute was an English sailor, author and television executive. Warren Tute was born in the year ABCD.
