			I-SPY ST. MATTS A guide to the people who make up Saint Matthias Campus
				Number 4 : Shoba, the St. Matts cat Wow, you've really sunk to new lows this time, doing a feature on a cat. Ah, but this is no ordinary cat. This is Shoba, the St Matts cat. What's so special about this moggy then? Well, all cats are cool. But I swear Shoba's the coolest of the lot of them. Suave, laid-back, nothing fazes our Shoba. In fact, he kind of epitomizes your average suave, laid back, unfazeable St Matts student. Oh, I see, so he's sort of a mascot, then. Yeah. I like to think that, like the ravens at the Tower of London, if Shoba ever leaves St Matts campus then UWE will crumble. Yeah, but you're weird. Granted. Wait a minute, isn't there another cat that hangs around the campus? Yes, but he's new and boring, plus I don't know if he has a name. Shoba is the original and best. What does Shoba do anyway? His official job description is to amuse students by sitting on the wall outside the library and staring at them, and to look cute by falling asleep in boxes in Canon Kitson. One more thing - if Shoba is the mascot of St Matts campus, then why does this magazine have a dog on the cover? Okay, shut up.
