Thug cat part 3. Unbidden guests are often welcomest when they are gone.

Since the second thread has now been promoted to 'classics' here is part three.

TC is clearly suitably impressed by his fame

Wasn't there recently a lost albino corn snake on MN?

Was snakey exhibiting any suspicious bulges and do you still have four cats, grumpy?

😅

We had a lost albino snake the next road over at the start of lockdown. Was half hoping I would find it

A few weeks ago (but later than the start of lockdown) someone did find an albino snake in their garden and write about it on MN. I'm not sure of the variety of snake, however.

Someone came and rescued it and describes it as 'obese'. :)

Ah was that the one that was lost by the Dad

I'm thinking that is a terrapin released into the wild when someone was tired of it, or when it got too big? How big was he?

I assume a terrapin too. He was big - size of a large dinner plate.

IMHO, size of a turtle soup tureen or cat bowl.

Your cats have large bowls?

Delighted that the last thread has rightly made its way into Classics. I also like the new literary persona for TC as the Sad Romantic Hero.

Glad the NDNs have found their corn snake (it must be like living next to Gerald Durrell). I thought TC was more likely to have eaten it than the other way round and I am sorry for maligning TC.

The weather has been a bit rubbish so TC hasn't been around too much of late.
However he turned up yesterday, relaxing on the boat and actually seemed pleased to see me. He ran up to me, jumped on the table for a fuss - then bit me.
Ah - how I've missed him.

The scamp !

Sometimes they bite you out of sheer love.

He just got a bit over excited and didn’t know what to do with himself.

Ah I have missed the magnificent TC, he is looking very majestic in those pictures.

Handsome boy!

TC won't let us use our car to go out...

You have another car though, right?

You have another car though, right?

Yes - we got very dirty looks when we left in it

How closely do you park the cars? Could he drape himself between the two to thwart all car-related abandonment?

What would he have done if you’d tried to pick him up?.

Is he an only child?

Gosh, he really is such a regal, handsome chap! He looks like he's contemplating a test drive in more annexed territory....

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats

I can't remember if you've ever mentioned whether TC bites anyone else but you. I loved hearing how he jumped into the auto of your visitors and was a perfect gentleman
