Last week, my colleague Mike sent me an image created by Hertfordshire artist Richard Saunders - I immediately knew we had to do more. And so a brilliant article about "Topiary Cats" was born.
The company, whose UK headquarters are in Milton Keynes, admitted last year that it had rigged diesel emissions tests. This has lead to higher costs and falling sales.
Nemo the goldfish originally lived in a care home where one of his Buckinghamshire owners had worked.
His tumour started to get larger when Caroline Hands brought him home with her upon leaving the company.

Caroline's husband Roy told us that while Nemo went for his operation in Bristol, the pair went for a walk: "My wife found a penny on the floor. They always say pick up a penny and have good luck, and it worked.
"It [the operation] was just under £230 but it was worth it."
