Thug cat part 4. After all, it's not my Axminster.

[Grumpyoldpersonwithcats]

By popular request, a furtherance of the Saga of TC the Stripey.

For anyone unfamiliar, this is a story of a war of attrition over the last two years waged by a fat stripey cat on the innocent and long suffering members (feline and human) of the Grumpy household. Now running at almost 3000 posts, clearly TC would give Grendel a run for his money

All literary references welcome, we've already had Shakespeare, Saki, James Thurber, The KJV bible, Judith Kerr, EM Forster, Benny Hill and of course our own Supersimkin2 (to name but a few).

It’s the Bengal in him.

Now I’ve got a moggy I realise I was just used to mine appearing in front of where I was. Open a cupboard? Cat jumps in. Decorating? Cat gets locked in the garage when you get the paint tray.

I have to take the recycling out on my own too “good girl mommy, glass SEPARATE from plastics and tins, let’s get you back inside now”.

TC is clearly auditioning for the next David Attenborough doumentary.

I’d watch him.

What a beautiful sight!

Gorgeous ♥️

Lenny is unimpressed this morning with TC hogging the shade.

Lenny's expression is purrfect

Lenny is not here for that shit.

TC has squatters rights, surely?

Magnificant! I wonder how many 'big cat' sightings he has been responsible for?

I can already hear the David Attenborough voice over for those pictures of TC out in the wild.

Lenny's expression just says it all and TC is completely oblivious in the background.

TC is a hunk, it must be said.

Everything was going well...

Until Basil apparently moved away from the door and TC saw his opportunity.

THIS IS NOT MY CAT

The noise he made (and the brutal attack on my legs) when I got him out was astonishing...

I'm not surprised if you picked him up mid snack and removed him from the only dog-free home he's ever known.

He was just stocking up the fat stores in case NDN makes that fatal error of forgetting to buy cat food again and he's saving you the effort of making a Red Cross parcel for him.

Dear God I couldn't pick him up.
He turns into a demented, growling, bitey, scratchy bastard, literally launching himself at my legs, when he gets into the house!

Our cats are seriously pissed off by this incursion this afternoon 🙀

Oh dear, was it very bad? Does he need a tetanus shot?

Does he need a tetanus shot? .

My leg is only bleeding slightly (clawed and bitten through jeans). So I think I'll live without tetanus.

Denims not what it was years ago, you’d have survived a tiger mauling with original denim.

Look at him licking his lips!

'I'll start with those bowls.. and then a side of Grumpy's leg'

😂. @Mistressofnone

Poor, starving waif.

Maybe Grumpy needs to invest in some of those special trousers that people who chainsaw things wear

Or Kevlar.
