Following our story about a cheeky Jack Russell stealing more than 100 tennis balls, we asked KentOnline readers to send us pictures of their naughty pets.

We were overwhelmed with hundreds of examples of mischievous dogs, cats and even sheep getting up to no good.

One unimpressed owner, Alanna Wilton, filmed the moment her moggie Boris got stuck in a McDonald’s Happy Meal box.

It meant the cat was the prime suspect after all the fast food disappeared.

Another of those included in our list is a moggie known as Mary Five Bellies.

She escaped the garden one night, managed to get on a neighbour’s shed and “screamed the street down”, according to owner Christine Stringer.

“We had to wake the neighbours up to get in their garden to rescue her,” she said. “She then spent 10 minutes insisting the neighbour tickle her tummy.”

Rochester woman Shauneen Fowler last week told how her light-pawed Jack Russell, Buddy, has collected dozens of balls hidden in bushes over the past three years.

The cheeky nine-year-old has had a love for collecting ever since being neutered as a puppy.

Kent’s love for naughty pets is clear as one marauding moggie known as the "Sainsbury's cat" has racked up more than a thousand dedicated fans.

Two-year-old former stray Griffin, who lives with his owner Rachel Craft in the King’s Mile area of Canterbury, has attracted a legion of followers on Facebook who track his audacious adventures across the city.

It is clear, Kent has some very naughty pets.

But no matter how mischevious our animals are, they still have our unconditional love.
