    Blue Knight 9 (no. 2640), my cat DID beat me at chess!!!!  Many years ago I played correspondence chess - yep, snail mail! I'd have up to 20 games at once.  So I had little magnetic boards set up in a cupboard, each board with the current position from one game set up.  I made a move in a particular game and sent the scoresheet off.  A few days later I received the reply - mate!!!!!  My board was set up with the wrong position.  I couldn't work out why.  Some weeks later I found my cat in the cupboard carefully pushing the pieces around with its paw.  A few weeks later I got my revenge by beating the cat at tennis.
