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

Hear hear!

Instead of paying protection money you could just lay out the red carpet for him to enter your houseGrin.

UncleShady · 01/07/2020 10:26

So you are being hounded, once again, by a strange cat. The third, after TC and Poodle Tail... I'm beginning to think it might be you Grumpy Grin

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 01/07/2020 10:14

We definitely haven't been eaten!

However utter confusion has reigned in the Grumpy household this morning.
Heard cats shouting at each other this morning. Went out to investigate and found Basil and Karl - however DW said she'd seen Lenny running off the drive.
Came back in and Lenny was inside the house.
Clearly I assumed that DW was hallucinating Grin.

Half an hour later TC wa spotted chasing a black cat through our garden, followed by Lenny. Basil and Karl were both in at this point.
So there is new small black cat in the neighbourhood (indistinguishable from ours at a distance) and DW wants to know if we have to pay TC protection money?

Or maybe they are getting along so well they are just lazing about the house, not bothering with MN 🤔

Do cats like yellow (ish) cars

As we have not heard from Grumpy for a few days I am wondering if TC has eaten him, UncleShadyGrin.

UncleShady · 29/06/2020 07:40

Seriously why are we still talking about 'extra' food and TC's need to 'sneak' into Grumpy's house - it's TC's home and he's perfectly entitled to eat anything he finds in there including but not limited to Sybil Grin

CassandraCross · 28/06/2020 13:37

Actually Grumpy as TC ousted the thug responsible for the poodley cut and vet bill of doom his need for extra sustenance for his labours is surely something that should have been readily offered to the hero of the hourGrin.

Supersimkin2 · 26/06/2020 22:03

Have you seen that new film The Invisible Man, Grumpy? Thought of you for some reason.

Fluffycloudland77 · 26/06/2020 17:28

Ah he engaged his Bengal stealth mode. They either make so much noise you wonder if their moving furniture or your finding them in rooms you banned them from. Asleep 😭

💖 not live!

nettie434 · 26/06/2020 15:07

Robert the Bruce has nothing on TC! I live you calling him a little lad, Supersimkin2. Unfortunately, TC has not got his helpless little kitty look on in the next photo! Grin There are medieval battering rams that are flimsier than TC.

CassandraCross · 26/06/2020 13:09

That's impressive stealth by TC to get past you and Sybil!

AnneKipanki · 26/06/2020 13:05

He is home .

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 26/06/2020 10:58

The trouble is he gets REALLY grumpy if you try to stop him eating.

As for letting the 'poor little chap' have a drink... he has got a river in his back garden. Grin

Helpless little lad just wanted something to ease his thirst in a heatwave. How could you deny a needy animal @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats?

7Worfs · 26/06/2020 10:36

What a morning!

I’m surprised TC didn’t pack up after Mrs Grumpy’s exclamation and continued his breakfast long enough for you to take photos. Grin

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 26/06/2020 09:45

And now he's back trying to get in again.

He then wandered into the dining room before being attacked by Sybil (well done girl Grin) and then amongst hissing and growling being removed by me. Very blurred picture (apologies) but this is Sybil going for the attack and TC escaping onto the dining room table.

I think he's upped his game. Shock

I was sitting at the kitchen table when DW came in and exclaimed 'what the ** is going on here?'

Neither Sybil (asleep in the kitchen) nor I, had spotted the Stripey Ninja polishing off all our cat food...
