I hope the literary TC will not object to being referred to as a thing.

I looked on the Battersea site ....... so many black cats ! Sad

And many of the cats are "able to live with older DC/teens , no dogs,no other cats" so their chances of re homing dwindle .

Sadly (for very good reasons) you're not allowed to touch the cats - but I would have done given a chance Grin.

Weren't you tempted? Did you pass the 3 second rule?

Just been to Battersea cats for a visit. They have a (gorgeous) female Bengal cross, 6/7 years old for rehoming (Nutmeg). On the door to the pen was a sign saying '3 second rule applies'. This is a warning to say offer hand for 3 seconds to check reaction Grin.
So if you live near Old Windsor you too could have a TC.

I bet their driving home thinking what a cute little pussy cat he is.

He loves to taunt you @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats x

AnneKipanki · 27/12/2019 10:49

He is a Devil 😈.

Sister and BIL have just left this morning. TC tried to stow away with them. He even allowed himself to be stroked while in the back of the car. Shock

Sybil is beautiful, and TC’s expression is communicating so much in that photo Xmas Grin

TC is back doing nocturnal visits. Shock.
Just went out to see if Karl and Lenny wanted in, and TC turns up at the door instead.
He's now sitting on the table outside.
A token picture also of (the pig in blanket stealing) Sybil.

He's adorable in his christmas costume, but you are in trouble @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats (and so will his owner be if TC finds out where the contraband pictures are coming from!).

Only cats are allowed late nights. Humans must be at home during service hours.

Singlewhiteguineapig · 25/12/2019 18:08

He actually knows that you posted pictures of him on the internet looking like a complete IDIOT. Look at his eyes. He knows 😮

CassandraCross · 25/12/2019 14:39

You are definitely in trouble Grumpy but it is nothing compared to the trouble your NDNs are in! Your only hope of redemption is to accept and welcome the poor wee mite into your homeGrin.

I'd love to see you trying to get Sybil into festive garb, she has the look of a feisty female cat we had who took NO prisoners irrespective of size.

Merry Christmas Grumpy, posters and lurkers! Xmas Smile

That early hours shot, just lol. “I know what you’ve done. You’ll regret it”

AnneKipanki · 25/12/2019 09:15

Merry Christmas everyone!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 25/12/2019 08:14

Xmas Shock He does not look happy does he?
I think you should subtly "check on your NDN" , TC/LSF has done something .......................................... maybe watch a few episodes of Luther to prepare yourself for the carnage that awaits Xmas Wink

First of all a very happy Christmas to all of TC's fans. Xmas Smile

However I think I may be in trouble.
Just back from midnight mass - TC was waiting for me - not (I suspect) to wish me seasons greetings - more likely he'd heard about the recent photos of him that I've published.
He didn't look happy!

BUT WHAT A FACE !!!

YetAnotherSpartacus · 24/12/2019 23:13

That’s TC’s cred totally destroyed. Massive loss of cool points! What a sweetie boy :).

titnomatani · 24/12/2019 18:41

Yay- a new thread! Looking forward to catching up with TCs shenanigans!

Fluffycloudland77 · 24/12/2019 18:30

My Bengal was horrible to other cats but luffed his mum. Or pouch lady, as no doubt classified me.

7Worfs · 24/12/2019 18:00

Best Christmas cards I’ve seen this season!

The slightly too small red vest... Xmas Grin Xmas Grin Xmas Grin

CassandraCross · 24/12/2019 17:18

Oh myShock, thanks for that Grumpy.

That look in the first picture is definitely one which is planning your neighbours untimely demise.....then you will have to home the poor wee orphanGrin.
