Last week you told us about your glamorous pets, but we know there are lots of hard-working animals out there too. Move over lounge lizards and pampered pooches: this week's Top pets assignment is the place to show us your animals being industrious.
One example, shared by one of our readers, is Showquat, the big ginger tom pictured above. Gingerclaire78 tells us: "He turned up at the Media Ops tents in Camp Bastion several years ago. He stayed and became tame and the team at the time adopted him. He was neutered and inoculated by the military vets that look after the working dogs in Camp Bastion. He feeds himself on the mice and birds he catches, but occasionally gets given a treat by one of the team." And she believes Showquat is still keeping the area rodent-free.
If you have a hard-working animal at home or at work, please share your pictures and videos.
