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.

Lottie strikes againI was away for this one, but I'm assured by my brother that this is how it happened.
The house over the road from our (then new) house contained a strangely-shaped family, and their annoying yappy road rat. Said road rat fancied a change of venue for its bowel movements, and trotted over the road to our house, yapping madly. Unfortunately, it then decided to yap at Lottie. Lottie turned her nose up at this, and ignored the dog. It decided to push its luck. So Lottie reached around lazily with one paw and laid into the dog. One swipe was all it took. Road rat heads back across the road, howling in pain.
Apparently the owners tried to lay the blame on us, and brought the vet's bill over (some £700). My Dad hinted that they could shove it.
They never spoke to us again. I was thrilled, as it meant I didn't have to babysit their ugly snot-filled crotchfruit any more.
