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.

The Height of Bad MannersWe were woken up the other night by our black cat, Chani. She had been sleeping on my girlfriend and at around 4am started to convulse and make strange gagging sounds.
Its funny how some noises will snap you right out of a deep sleep, and we both woke up instantly to see if she was OK. "Turn the f***ing light on", I yelled. But my girlfriend, one hand restraining the cat couldnt find the light.
By the time the light was turned on, our scrawny black oriental moggy had clawed her way across to my side of the bed, heaving and vomiting as she went.
Most cats get hairballs, not Chani though, she eats her own shit. She had left a trail of dark brown shit-vomit across the bed, culminating at my pillow.
*THWACK* off the bed flies the cat. We spent the next 20 minutes scrubbing the mattress, we eventually ended up sleeping in the other room out of sheer disgust.
