When 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.

When my brother and I were young, we had a tortoise each; mine was called Bubble and his Squeak.
They were surprisingly entertaining, though sometimes for the wrong reasons - on one occasion, Mum looked out of the kitchen window to see my brother 'revving' Squeak up at the top of the slide before letting him go. Squeak travelled most of the way with legs and head sticking out as far as possible before pulling everything in just before impact.
Luckily 'impact' was onto mud and grass rather than concrete, so he survived his trauma rather better than my brother did once Mum got hold of him.
