Numerous sources are claiming Google Co-Founders & Presidents, Larry Page and Sergey Brin are in loggerheads over the death of Larry's pet cat, Elgoog. It has long been known that Mr. Brin has an intense loathing of cats a direct result of an incident that occured in his childhood, but despite this Mr. Page has always ruled out a complete ban on cats in the Googleplex. In the fall of 2005 Mr. Brin finally succombed to pressure from janitor Matt Cutts and allowed a room at the plex to be set aside for use as a cat creche.
It is reported that an incident occured on Sunday 15th January which resulted in Mr. Pages' cat using up all 9 of his lives in one go. Initialy it was thought to have been an unfortunate accident, but after closer examination, the cat was found to have an impression of a size 9 sneaker print on his rear quarters. Ater hearing this news Mr. Page reportedly flew in to a wild rage, locked himself in his office and threw lego bricks at all who tried to enter the room. After calming down, it is claimed head of security was called and informed to make a plaster cast of the sneaker impression in hope of trying to find the evil culprit. In true Cinderella style the hunt was now on to find the wearer of the said sneeker.
After 3 days of searching and searching Mr. Page realised this was to big a job for Google and called in old friend Terry Semel to lead the search. This immediately resulted in 437 sneakers being found, but unforunately none of these were the one being searched for. Still with no joy, a call was put out to a number of private investigators wich resulted in the French search agency, Taggle coming forward with the sneaker. On closer examination though, it was discovered this was just another sneaker made up and cloaked to look like the offending one.Now at desperation point, Mr. Brin decided to turn to the internet for assistance. His first move was to call in the Major US marketing team at v7n.com to lead an advertisinng campaign to help find the evil culprit behind the demise of Elgoog, next he signed up with the leading Cat and owner reunited specialists and placed the following advert on the isthisyourcat.com website to see if the culprit would do the honourable thing and own up.

The Culprit is Found
After placing the ad, Mr. Page went on to have a good look around isthisyourcat.com and found the found cats sectioned, where much to his disbelief was a cat that looked remarkbly like Elgoog. On closer inspection of the ad (included below) it suddenly became clear that the culprit Mr. Brin had been dicovered.
Mr. Page reportedly stormed straight up to Mr. Brins office where a heated argument began and as tempers became more frayed, blows were allegedly thrown. It is believed head janitor, Mr. Cutts seperated the duo and Mr. Page stormed out of the room overheard saying "I should have told him where to stick his BackRub, he's never been the same since Florida".
