Beetle (I think) ID please

Does anyone know what bug this is?

I've been searching online for a while and only come up with similar beetles with many stripes, not an exact ID.

Purrrfect!

Thank you very much. Did you know of this one before? Or you are a better bug searcher - what did you search for?

No. No idea what it was. :lol:
I have several sites saved to 'favourites' with bugs on as I like to know friend or foe in my own garden. I just clicked on a few and there it was!
I didn't think it was a friend though as I know most of them by sight now.
