Furry bastard is currently slumbering peacefully upon a £68 fake fur blanket, which is wrapped around a £50 pillow, which is on the coffee table, blocking the remote control from working. The heating has been on all day to keep him warm.
Our bed has a £7 quilt and £3 pillows.
If Furry Bastard decides he wants one of the £3 pillows for a bit, all he has to do in march upstairs and shove one of us off by bodyslamming our heads with his large, furry arse and then gently piercing the other's scalp with his tiny pointy bits so he can then occupy all the pillows and we sleep on the mattress.
Twat Cat has his own little homes built out of cardboard boxes and decorated. He had his own yurt made of raspberry canes, a fleece and a pure wool jumper for a while. There are cushion laced under most radiators and all surfaces are clear, lest he should decide to stand upon one.
Whenever DP cooks, he feeds the Furry Bastard first. When I cook, he gets to test the ingredients are up to scratch before they're prepared for human consumption. He has two surfaces from which to supervise any cooking. But no human is permitted in the kitchen whilst the other is cooking, because they'll get in the way.
DP reckons that if he dies first, he's going to ask to come back as one of my pets. I've said at least I'll be able to run my fingers through his hair in that event.
However, if you asked the Furry Bastard, he'd probably say that he is completely maltreated, half starved and nobody loves him.
(Twat Cat is also a tabby. I wonder if it's a genetic sense of entitlement, as I've found them to be the most demanding of preferential treatment?)
