Share your story of your most memorable pet

1 week ago 20

After a one year hiatus - and due to popular demand - the Guardian will soon be resuming the Pet I’ll Never Forget, a column celebrating the magnificent creatures and mischievous critters who have left an indelible mark on their owners.

It’s a real who’s who of pet royalty. There’s Nelson, the unapologetic one-eyed cat; Verity, the kleptomaniac pug; Thumper, the frisky rabbit who got pregnant through her cage; Rambo, the Dexter-watching tarantula, to name but a few.

And if you want to add your own furry (or scaly, slimy, feathered, etc) companion, to these hallowed ranks, then we want to hear from you. Whether they’re no longer with us or still here today, tell us about your fondest memory of them and how they changed your life.
