READER Chris Oglesby of Sale, took this photo of 'Basil' who visits his back garden almost daily.

He said: "He has become so familiar with my partner Ann and myself that he now sits and almost asks for a menu.

"On one occasion Ann phoned me at work to tell me 'Basil' had his two front paws on the step with his nose pressed up to the window, looking in."
