Punorama

  • Posted Tuesday, 30 January 2007 at 12:46 UK time

It's time for Punorama.
cat_cut_203.jpg
As ever, we supply the story and in return you give us your best puns.

This week it's the tale (no pun intended...) of Twiglet the 12-year-old tabby cat who has been put on anti-depressants to treat "anger-management issues" after a spate of bullying by a ginger tom.

Too afraid to go out, her weight went up to 7kg, her stomach hit the floor and she got cystitis.

Vets have put her on a Prozac-like drug called amitriptyline to try and treat the condition.

Submit your entries using the comments form button below (and not the letters box on the right hand side of this page). The winners will appear here on Wednesday.
