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.

foster chickenWhen my gran was a kid in weatmeath, they had many pets, one of which was a Much loved chicken with unfulfilled maternal tendendies. Upon discovering this her folks put her to good use as she was more than happy to hatch and raise orphaned or abandonned eggs. Despite the size difference, she hapily taised quails,guinea hens and even some turkeys. However, imagine her confusion upon raising some ducklings, and them finding the pond - my gran said she never seen anything like the panic,hen trying to get everyones attention/assistence as they laughed, when she thought her babies were drowning and she couldnt get to them...and when she eventually realised they were ok, staring into the water wondering why she couldnt swim..poor dear
