A black cat called Percy who was the pet of an Officer in WW1 - one of the first tank commanders. Percy went everywhere with his owner, even into battle in the tank. Both man and cat survived.

OH told me about this amazing story and I watched the programme this morning on the Discovery Channel, narrated by Dan Snow.

I have to say that I would never subject a cat to such a terrible experience. I wonder what the rest of the tank crew thought.
