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...

TC sitting on NDN's car (on our drive.)

Don't be fooled by the angelic picture - he'd attacked Mrs Grumpy's legs just prior to this

Monarch of all he surveys.

Regards to Mrs Grumpy.

I see the claws are still poking out a bit in the murder mittens. Keeping the warning visible?

Cat on a hot car roof?

Aww, what big softy, wouldn't hurt a fly (Grumpy had better look out though) 😁

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 05/04/2024 12:50

Just as well for me that I don't need the car this afternoon...

And what if you did .....?

You are labouring under the misapprehension that you have a choice ....Wink

MsSupineLickspittle · 05/04/2024 16:04

Haven't you already tried driving off with him on the roof? I'm sure a few threads ago you mentioned a desire to see how long he could stay on for?

LostCats · 05/04/2024 16:15

I reckon TC’s claws could punch through the car roof and he could hang on 😁😁

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 05/04/2024 16:24

I have driven off with him on the car roof ocassionally. He is remarkably adhesive 🤣.

Little lad warming his small body in the weak spring sun. Bless his heart.

MsSupineLickspittle · 06/04/2024 11:31

"remarkably adhesive"

In so many ways 😂

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 08/04/2024 11:57

Can anyone spot the problem?

No problem that I can see 🤔

YetAnotherSpartacus · 08/04/2024 14:00

There is no food bowl in front of TC.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 08/04/2024 14:05

At least he's now back on his own (NDN's) car.

So beautiful and good.

Dad are you cooking this for me today ?

The chicken or the dog?

😂😂😂

😱

MsSupineLickspittle · 09/04/2024 14:59

That face is the face of a cat that if he were to happen across an unconscious human body would start chewing it. Weeks later, police would break down the door to find a pile of unopened mail, a skeleton and a fat, unbothered cat.

Breadcat24 · 09/04/2024 16:25

If there is chicken in the house then you have your orders! Only yourself to blame if you do not deliver and wake up to TC chewing your foot.
To be honest I think I would just be safe and go out and buy some chicken!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 09/04/2024 21:53

Poor TC is so starved and neglected he has EATEN HIS OWN LEGS

My cats have Cat Protection League in speed-dial
Poor TC doesn't stand a chance unless he can dial with his nose !

TCsDad · 09/04/2024 22:01

OMG, your imaginations are going wild. I just thought of cooking something and he jumps up and asks is this my treat. I'd rather give him some raw chicken before I start cooking for a cat.
