Thug Cat part 2. What, has this thing appeared again tonight?

[Grumpyoldpersonwithcats]

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

TC part 1

Happy New Year to everyone. Very sorry to hear about TC’s injury, hope he’s back on top form soon

How is the star of the show now?

Coincidentally @YetAnotherSpartacus TC has reappeared this morning with no sign of a limp at all. I even stroked him several times without getting savaged.
A few shots of him on the front (behind bars again ) and then him trying to stop me getting to my front door without him.

There was also a half-mouse on the step this morning - not sure if Karl or TC was responsible.

I thought he had his back legs crossed in the second to last picture but if you look closely it's his tail (my phone screen is small and I'm squinting in the sun to be fair)

I thought it might be his tummy, but I'm on TC's side so I didn't actually say that.

Maybe it is his tummy! He's a fine figure of a cat.

How can you resist those eyes in the first pic? That yearning expression, that hope, that fear of disappointment!

I love that picture of TC's front feet, the way they are so perfectly aligned either side of the join in the tiles.

A half mouse would not satisfy TC's appetite, so I suspect he is innocent of this particular crime.

Cassandra I love the picture on page 1 more where his back legs are splayed out at an almost perfect 90 degree angle

Nonstop yes that it is a superb picture, TC is incredibly photogenic.

TC is certainly easier to photograph than my 'kittens' who usually appear as black blobs.
Karl however was trying very hard to look appealing this morning .

I see you’ve got a cat warming station for him, nice!

Karl is very appealing!

I too have a black void with eyes. Bloody lethal at the top of the stairs if you need the loo at night.

The Black Void

And sadly, black cats being more difficult to photo (and therefore to put on social media) is one of the reasons they are more difficult to home.
I just get round it by living vicariously through TC's antics

Poor Leroy has the combo of black and FIV+ so you can probably guess that he was somewhat overlooked at the rescue for quite a while.

Then I came along and he's been a spoilt brat King of the Household ever since 🥰.

My black void sleeps on DHs black man bag therefore perfectly disguising himself as a trip hazard.

I deliberately asked the rescue for a black kitten as they are the hardest to rehome and I always wanted a mini black panther his fur is like black satin.

Karl is telling you you spend too much time online!

Avid follower here. Loving the updates of these gorgeous little things

Shamelessly placemarking for TC updates. We have our own TC called Charlie.

I've just read both threads and they're just brilliant!
I had a half bengal half persian pair a few years ago, they were fabulous, one looked Bengali and one fluffy bengal!
Sadly we have a neighbour who Does Not like cats and my boy disappeared one night :(
Then my girl was hit by a car a few months later.
I now have a stupid whippet (I do love her really but she has no brains!) who never leaves my side so won't get "allegedly" drowned by the neighbour or run over by a idiot car driver.
Looking forward to more TC updates!

TC is actually being friendly(ish) this morning.
Sitting on our barbeque - so I went out to say hello.

Alas he's now appeared at the back door and Sybil is howling at him.

My ! What fine teeth he has😼
