TC is clearly suitably impressed by his fame

Hope you don't get any high winds!

Perfect spot to ambush TC if he spots the open window Grin

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 15/10/2020 18:45

I find it very disturbing when she does this on windows upstairs. Shock

She's not taking any prisoners.

Olinguito · 15/10/2020 17:54

It doesn't look like a very comfortable perch Grin

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 15/10/2020 13:51

I opened the window for her to go out - she obviously thought it would be more entertaining to jump to the top of the window frame instead. She has form for this.

Sybil! How did you get up there?

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 15/10/2020 11:58

Sybil has now decided to keep an eye on him Grin.

He really never gives up...
This morning I heard a scuffle between TC and Karl so went out to tell TC off. He responded by hissing at me and swiping my leg. He then decided to try and break in.

TC would benefit from anger management classes and community service

He would argue Grumpy and family would benefit from welcoming classes and hospitality service.

As far as he's concerned the only issue is no one else recognising that he lives in both his house and Grumpy's, and when I say house I mean entire estate and all chattels contained within. Obviously therefore he should be allowed to sit on cars and barbecues and indeed boats, and to come in and eat all the food and enjoy the company of all the cats. Especially those whom he has saved from the Evil Cat of Poodletailgate.

The total indifference and lack of appreciation must really rankle with him, it's not surprising sometimes he seems a little cantankerous Grin

TC has done many things but thus far has never thrown a phone at me Grin.

I really liked the 'TC' sculpture too - genuinely captured the cat essence. Priced at £725.

That made me laugh PurrsWhileheeats Grin I now have an image of TC in a dayglo onesie marked 'community payback' being told to wash Grumpy's car or empty Sybil et al's litter trays!

BovaryX · 13/10/2020 20:45

That sculpture is rather wonderful and very evocative of TC. An artist's muse. Another one of TC's hidden talents.....

purrswhileheeats · 13/10/2020 20:06

@Supersimkin2

Has he ever thrown a phone at you?
😂😂😂

YetAnotherSpartacus · 13/10/2020 19:31

I love that sculpture! Did it have a price tag?

Supersimkin2 · 13/10/2020 19:16

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 13/10/2020 18:53

As an aside I was at an sculpture exhibition over the weekend and spotted this. Has TC got a secret modelling career?

Little soft paws, tender fur, sensitive face...it's only when you see the glint in Side Eye of Satan that you realise the bravery that is @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats.

Mandala Get him next week, he's too little to leave alone.

He's making sure his paws are clean before he wanders into your house/onto your car/rips your arms off*

Poor misunderstood urchin.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 13/10/2020 14:02

TC has been doing much the same as usual; having disagreements with Karl, miaowing outside our front door at 5.30 in the morning, using our cars as vantage points etc.
He's currently (having accepted a stroke with reasonably good grace) doing his ablutions on the patio table.
