Not a game, but my "Speccy-sense" was tingling for some reason after seeing this picture on the BBC news website today... 8-)

A bit late comment but
My cat DESTROYED my life and my dog SAVED mine
seems like a great name for a Spectrum game :lol:

It could be for example some fast action where you play the dog and
have to chase off the cat from making damage all around the house.
