Pet StoriesWhen one of my cats was younger and a lot fatter, he came bowling in from the garden with an almighty crash. Looking slightly stunned, he'd arrived into the kitchen having ripped the cat flap from the door and was still wearing it as a cat-tutu. Did I mention he was quite fat?
In honour of Jake, a well loved cat, who died on Wednesday, tell us your pet stories and cheer us up.

best catOur cat is a really pretty, well-mannered cat. She is a proper lady and says please and thank you and everything.
However she is scared of everything that is bigger than her, like all bullies, so picks on everything that is smaller than her. Once she chased a spider all round the sitting room till it gave up. Then she batted it from side to side with her paw, lazily, till it died. Then she tried to eat it, realised she didn't like the taste, spat it out with a BLAAAGH! noise and ran away.
Her other victims are corks out of wine bottles. She will hear the pop-gurgle-gurgle and then do big eyes at us until we surrender the cork. I find them everywhere.
She is a proper sweetie though and is always waiting for me when I get home. She follows me about the house and likes to watch me cook. She will wail like a starving orphan if I dare to have fish or meat without sharing it with her. She curls up on the duvet when I go to sleep and wakes me up every morning at breakfast time by nuzzling my cheek with her little nose. She makes little chirruping noises and will make "question" noises before jumping up onto the bed/sofa. She will hold my hand with her paw while i am watching telly (handy when it's something scary).
god I'm soppy.
