Drunk skunk is reunited with family E-mail
A pet skunk who went missing from his family home was spotted out and about enjoying a pub crawl before being returned to his owners.

Sparky, the furry stripy stinker, escaped through an open door a week ago and his family the Burgesses, from Woolston, had almost given up hope of his return.

But Chris Burgess, 50, told the Hampshire Echo: "We had four reports of people who had seen him at different pubs in the area."

Sparky was first spotted skunking around the Yacht Tavern. Landlady Jacqui Gordon suggested maybe he was just thirsty.

Mr Burgess added: "We're over the moon to have him back."

Meanwhile, a family from Keighley was recently reunited with their long-lost dog Ozzie.

The Dicksons told the Keighley News of their joy after the beloved boxer went missing back in May, only to be returned home to them seven months later.
