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.

Soylent Green is fishMy mum won a bunch of fish at a local fair -- half a dozen, all different colours (not just goldfish). We took them home, got a tank and, somehow, managed to keep them alive.
Strangely, though, after a while, they started to disappear one by one. We looked down the back of the cupboard the tank was on -- nothing. Inside the decorative shells? Nope. The dog couldn't have got to them. Just vanished. Very odd.
The mystery was solved when after several weeks, we were left with one very fat, smug-looking fish. Still have no idea what sort of fish it was, but it got pretty big and lived for ages. Although it was on its own in the tank from then on.
