fgrep - printing pattern and filename

Hi,

I have a patternfile with following pattern
cat
dog
cow
pig

Let's say I have thousand files
file0001
file0002
file0003
.
.
.
file1000

Each pattern can occur multiple times in multiple files. How can I search for pattern so the output of pattern and the filename is printed only once. I want the output to look like this

cat file0003 ( cat occurs in file0003 5 times but is printed only once)
cat file0500
cat file0699
dog file0001
dog file1000
pig file0999

and so on.
I used fgrep -f patternfile /directory/file* but that prints multiple lines for pattern occuring in same file.
