The team promised to adopt Dave the Cat if they won the World Cup and then decided to still do it anyway after being eliminated in the quarterfinals.

The England soccer team made a promise to stray-turned-team-mascot Dave the Cat that if they won the World Cup, they would bring Dave home with them.

Unfortunately, England lost to France 2-1 on Saturday. But the team just couldn't part ways with their new friend.


In an interview video posted to his Instagram page, player John Stones said of Dave:

"Big Dave. He's big now. He's getting big."
"I just fed him before I came here."

Stones said of the budding companionship:

"I don't know, the first day we got there, we've got like a little table around the corner."
"Next minute, Dave pops out."
"Then every night he's there, sat, waiting for his food."

Dave may be acquiring a sophisticated palate thanks to his new seat at the table.

"But the other day, actually, he didn't eat all his food."
"We were a bit annoyed at him. We think he's getting a bit greedy."

You can view the video below.

Viewers were elated Dave found a new home.

Even though they didn't win the World Cup, it seems the story still has a happy ending.

Welcome to your new life Dave!
