Hi all, We recently had a couple of friends stay for a few days and they had to bring their kitten cos it was too small to leave alone. Now that it has gone home we started feeling broody so we have adopted an imaginary kitten and called it Mucus. Why do we call it that? We call it Mucus that's the sound it makes. Does anyone else have imaginary friends or pets? Jim

My daughter Shannon, who is five has an imaginary friend called Rosie. The funny thing is, apparently Rosie is in a wheelchair as she has poorley legs!! She is a very politically correct child! Pat

My boyfriend Richrad Barker has an imaginary friend at the age of nearly 31!!! I bought one of those dolls that you stand facing a wall (looks like a real child) and he's called him Francis Bean Barker he does the voice thing of a 3 year old child as well.( sounds like a smurf ) Dawn

Hi Jim, No we haven't got an imaginary pet but my husband has a pet stone! It's a small pebble he picked up from a beach in Cornwall and is black with a white cross on it (Cornish flag??) He takes it everywhere and we even took it to New Zealand with us - we now have a picture of it with a few of his NZ 'relatives'. I'm having him sectioned next week! lol Magsx P.S. - It's name's Rocky !!

I hope when your husband is sectioned that he is soon up and about again.

We have a brick (an ordinary house brick) that has been with us for about 25 years. He sits in the dining room and doesn't cause any trouble at all. Just needs dusting occasionally and likes to be talked to when we pass him. His name is Bricky.
