Thug cat part 5 - For he will not do destruction, if he is well-fed, neither will he spit without provocation.

Christopher Smart had clearly never met TC.
Due to popular demand (and a fear of lynching by the denizens of Mumsnet if I failed to comply) please find enclosed the 5th (🙀) thread about my NDN's cat.
For any new arrivals to this thread, TC is a stripy thug who spends most of his waking hours trying to break into our house. He doesn't get on with our cats (with the possible exception of Sybil, but only if she's in the mood). He currently is at war with Lenny.
He occasionally behaves like a perfect gentleman, his more normal MO however is to be a hissing spitting ball of teeth and claws.
For any one daft enough, here are the last 4000 posts about him
thread1
thread2
thread3
thread4
For anyone far too sensible to trawl through the above threads, here are a few of his photographic highlights. And yes, the last one is him on my kitchen table...

That is my favourite one bottom left in the first set. I see you put his real name in again there @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats z

I can confirm that I have never revealed TC's real name (I don't think 🤣).

And I love that picture too, it is now immortalised on some coasters we got made for NDN at Christmas.

Excellent stuff. I rarely comment and have had various name changes but have been here since thread 1 and I'm delighted to see thread 5!!

Many thanks Grumpy. I don't know how I would have managed without the next episodes of TC attempting to woo the beauteous Sybil

As a cat slave I understand the predicament TC poses, surely you have room for a striped master.

4 reasons why I don't 🤣 I get little enough sleep as it is.

😂 I wish TC had his own thread so we could get his side of the story.

How is his waistline these days? He was starting to look temptingly cuddly last year but latest pics suggest he has upped his step count.

I suspect it's either-

  1. I can, so I will


Or

  1. It's my house/car/pool/boat/Sybil anyway, it's all a misunderstanding, he's the evil one not me, poor me.
