Cat gets yellow card E-mail
Goalkeeper Ivan Banovic did his bit for pet health care this week when he rescued a cat that strayed onto the football pitch during a game in Croatia.

He was playing for Medjimurje Cakovec against Sibenik when the moggy wandered onto the field.

Banovic picked up the cat and placed it out of harm's way near a scoreboard.

However, not everyone appreciated the gesture and the referee booked the goalie for leaving the field of play without permission.

According to various media reports, the fans were not impressed with the official's interpretation of the rules and proceeded to heckle him for his actions.

Sibenik went on to win the game 1-0.

In another feline-related story, singing sensation Susan Boyle recently told the News of the World that she will not be moving out of her council house in favour of a mansion because her car Pebbles "would hate to live anywhere posh".
