A brave French cat was once made a celebrity thanks to her daring space trip - but suffered a tragic end not long afterwards.
'Felicette' - later dubbed 'Felix' - blasted off into orbit as part of the French rocket programme of the 1960s.
She was found as a stray Parisian street cat and was the first cat to go to space when she took part in a 15-minute orbit of the Earth in 1963.
