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

I just can't find the words to describe my thoughts on Karl's tail, although when you said 'nom de plume' it does resemble a quill pen!

purrswhileheeats · 06/06/2020 16:05

Poor TC's little face getting squished in the door 😿😿🙀

7Worfs · 06/06/2020 17:08

Lol, denning beat me to it!
I was going to say there’s only an axe missing from that photo. Grin

Poor Karl. That furs taking forever to grow back.

DS1 heard one of the cats miaowing outside the front door about 15 minutes ago. He got up to let it in and it wasn't one of ours...
Second bid for entry today.

TC's face wasn't squashed by the way - he was hissing at me and attacking my foot. It goes without saying that we are exceedingly careful not to trap any of TC in the door (despite how difficult he makes it).

In terms of Karl's haircut - yes it is taking for ever to grow back - I'm really not considering trimming the other cats in the same way so he doesn't feel left out Shock

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats I was teasing you about TC's squished face. Although I hope you've never watched Casino 😱

Lorddenning1 · 06/06/2020 23:21

@Supersimkin2 😁

TC is resting on top of the barbeque.
Happy to be stroked and pose for photos. (With only very minor biting)

Is the lip licking shot the after shot of very minor biting?Grin

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 08/06/2020 17:41

@CassandraCross

Yes it was Grin

Majestic beast 😍

AnneKipanki · 08/06/2020 19:12

Awesome!

YetAnotherSpartacus · 09/06/2020 08:18

What a beautiful photo!

It has that 'filmed on safari look too'!

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 09/06/2020 13:15

This morning we moved from David Attenborough to 'kitchen sink dramas'.
The persistant little shitbag got in again.
Both Sybil and Poodley seemed a little surprised

SUCCESS! No one seems actually upset though except you do they?

CassandraCross · 09/06/2020 13:21

The stroking and very minor biting were a cunning ploy to distract you from the 'Storm The Kitchen' Plan and you fell for itGrin.

You just gotta love TC, so magnificent, so persistent, so TC!

UncleShady · 09/06/2020 13:48

He looks totally relaxed and at home. I mean - you let him in, you stroke and pat him, feed him, take photos of him - how is that him not being welcome in your house? Grin

Lorddenning1 · 09/06/2020 18:47

I love how he isn't actually looking at you in your latest pics, kind of like if I can't see them, they certainly cannot see me, he is such a little shit 😁

Supersimkin2 · 09/06/2020 19:48

'Hello' syndicates delightful feature The Grumpy Family In their Delightful Home! Spot The Mystery Celeb Houseguest!

All proceeds to the NHS (Grumpy's GP).

Huzzah - the Grumpy household is impregnableish.

TC failed miserably to get in through the window today.

Maybe the dogs are mean to him and he needs some respite from them.

Ellmau · 10/06/2020 19:49

Grumpy's stance is truly Churchillian in the face of the Cat Who Acts Like Hitler.

More like King Canute in the face of the Unstoppable Feline Ocean.

UncleShady · 10/06/2020 20:04

He got 10% of himself in that second, then 15% in the third ... over a 24 hour period he probably gets 100% of him inside the house and counts it as a win.
