30 January 2007: A Jammed Cat

Un unnamed cat had to pause for thought after it tried to fish a mouse out of a jam jar - and got its head stuck.

A motorist found the tabby wandering by a road in Cambridgeshire with the jar on its head and the mouse millimetres from its nose. At the local police station a receptionist and three burly policemen could find no way to solve the puzzle. They pulled and twisted but to no avail.

But the tale has a happy ending. The cat freed itself - and the mouse - by smashing the jar on the floor of the police station.

SaintFM wonders if it was charged with breaking and exiting.
