So glad to see TC settling into his new home.

I have to get Agatha to the vet by 8 tomorrow morning for her annual checkup / vaccinations and now, her quarterly flea and worm treatment. She decided that she wasn't going to eat the Credelio any more, and I've never managed to burrito her by myself to apply spot-on, so I have the fun of wrangling her after breakfast. Photo of her being a bit velcro.

@TheShellBeach are any of your neighbours on MN. It's them that will reveal the truth 🙀.

You are implying I'm lying, Grumpy?

I'm shocked. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Here's the Evil Menace, taken a moment ago.

As if...🤣🤣🤣🤣.

I'm merely pointing out that TC may exhibit subtly different behaviours within his own house than he does when terrorising the neighbourhood.

Perhaps that's how it starts. TC behaves like a lil baby angel at home, sucking up to his new humans, all the while he's plotting and scheming and looking around for his next nemesis so he can carry out another dastardly plan.

I believe it's called gaslighting 🤣

It's not just the fangs with Suzy, it's those pale lamp-like eyes.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 13/06/2024 19:38

I don't care if it's raining - no you fecking can't come in you little furry bastard.
I have now rescued the baby bird - not convinced it will live but I've given it a chance.

Oh no, wish they wouldn’t do that. I think he’s bringing you a present for getting clear of terror thug cat.

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats I'm seeing a trend here of you refusing entry to sweet innocent kitties.

RumNotRun · 13/06/2024 20:36

I think Frederick is looking particularly handsome tonight 😍

Here's Mr. Linney, bravely plucking up the courage to leave the bedroom.

And the furry menace has left his bed at last - to fall asleep elsewhere

That's one cosy cat!😺

AnneKipankitoo · 13/06/2024 21:35

Is he drugged?

Papergirl1968 · 13/06/2024 21:51

I also thought TC stood for Top Cat.
Looks like he is doing very well indeed though.
Matt still resents poor Socks, four or five years on, inoffensive little thing that she is. If she’s on the windowsill, that’s where he wants to be and makes her get off. If she’s lying on the bed by me, he will chase her off. If he can be bothered to move. Tonight he glared at both me and Socks but was too lazy to get up.

Well, only if you think that a Feliway plug-in counts as drugging.

Yes I do. It takes a lot to send three 20-somethings to bed at 8pm every night for months. They were starting to think they were getting carbon monoxide poisoning at their rental... nope, just a feliway upstairs 😂

Frederick always looks handsome (in the pictures you post anyway 😺)

You're right, he is. He's also the most well behaved, except when he's climbing chimneys!

LostCats · 14/06/2024 09:44

But when he does that he is technically no long Fred because he changes colour so he becomes his naughty alter ego…

Anniegetyourgun · 14/06/2024 09:47

Dark Fred! 😎(Can't find a cat with sunglasses emoji.)
