Everton FA Cup win halted by CAT - but where does it rank in the 11 funniest animal pitch invaders ever?

The furry feline wandered on to the playing surface and sat down near the goal before Toffees keeper Joel Robles shooed it away

Everton safely sealed their place in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday with a win over Dagenham and Redbridge - but not before play was halted by a CAT.

Toffees keeper Joel Robles was about to take a goal-kick in the second half when a cat wandered onto the pitch and sat down near the edge of his penalty box.

The bemused stopper walked over to the animal, who got something of a fright and darted towards the goal, before veering off the pitch towards the supporters.

After that feline intervention, the Blues continued the game and won 2-0, to progress to the next round of the competition they last won in 1995.
