The biggest bank in Russia is loaning cats to mortgage customers for good luck in their new homes.
Sberbank seems to be capitalising on the Russian superstition that it brings fortune for a cat to walk into a new home first.
Customers are invited to choose from 10 cats, including Apricot the ginger tabby, Toffee the Siamese and a hairless Sphynx cat called Kuzma.
