I LOVE a tale with a twist in it, and one with a happy ending - like your account of little Oliver, the missing cat (April 18).

It brought tears of joy and laughter to my eyes to read that "each time the animal collection officer (dog-catcher) tried to catch him, Oliver ran away".

Obviously the frightened moggie did not fancy further exercise in the dog-compound at the RSPCA centre at Landing Lane!
