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.

SnailsI keep giant African land snails. Although there are many of them, the patriarch is called Mittens and when he is fully stretched he is the length of my fore-arm. He loves the song "Africa" by Toto, and waves his feelers when you play it. They need a little thimbleful of beer in to help their shells grow, and after they've drunk it, they get a little tipsy and wobble about. Its very cute. They also eat Heinz baby food from a spoon. Brilliant animals.
