I spent ages last night trying to think of this thread title.

🤣🤣🤣

So - GT lives 3 doors down, just beyond Gizmo's old house.
As usual his real name will not be revealed.
I've been warned not to feed him because if he thinks there is food around we'll never see the back of him 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 26/11/2024 14:04

Grumpy, I don't want to victim blame or say you're asking for it, but I think you're secretly hoping that GT will fill in for TC. I reckon you enjoy the attention from the would be intruders

I'm outraged at being so transparent

So you've put out some posh food and Dreamies then?

So rather than TC he will be TDDC (Three Doors Down Cat)?

Esgaroth · 26/11/2024 15:40

He's being much maligned here. He looks to me like he could be starving to death. Where is your sense of hospitality? #JusticeForGingerCats

Breadcat24 · 26/11/2024 16:04

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats Look at his little face- he wants friends (and your cats' food)

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 26/11/2024 16:22

I have made a mistake.
GT actually lives on the Island across the backwater at the end of our >garden. Not on our street. I believe he's using the bridge to come and see us rather than swimming though 🤣.
(My error - I assumed his house number was for my road not for the Island road)

One of our neighbours commented that if you are eating anything when he looks in, he'll scratch at your windows. I may test this Pavlovian dog cat reaction. 😺

I am very pleased we have a new interloper in the thread! Spices it up nicely 😁

🤣🤣🤣🤣

So he's exactly like The Broon One, except he's The Ginger One.

Got it.

I was going to say he's behaving like TC's evil twin. Then I realised how daft that statement really is 🤣.
The Strange Case of Mr Hyde and Mr Hyde perhaps?

Are you suggesting that my latest feline acquisition is evil?

Not 'suggesting' 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Gizmo wishes to glare at Grumpy.

Love that Gizmo look - I've been the recipient of it frequently in the past 🤣

Papergirl1968 · 26/11/2024 18:28

That’s good news, Allergic. Glad you and Annie were unscathed.

RumNotRun · 26/11/2024 20:12

Vixen is sprawling this evening. Also she is using the bat as a pillow. Finally one of the cats is kind of cuddling the bat (and I didn't put it under the head).

@TheShellBeach is Gizmo snuggled on a lap in that photo?

I love GT already. He looks like Benny. Photos of him very relaxed a couple of nights ago 🧡

Yes, Gizmo was on my lap.

I always thought Gizmo looked like a bit of a cuddler. Benny is looking very relaxed in those photos.

Frank was demanding attention earlier and purring his tiny brain out. He still always manages to look demonic in photos even when he's being adorable.

Is he a fangy boy?

EmpressaurusDeiGatti · 27/11/2024 08:26

Frank’s eyes look as if they could be very useful in a night time power cut.

I left the house for the gym around 6 this morning. It was cold & bucketing down. Kitty was staring at me as if I was nuts.

She may have had a point.

Pudmyboy · 27/11/2024 03:06

Frank? Very much so. His eyes are also often all pupil which adds to the evil look. He's super affectionate at the moment though and will gently tap me if I'm not paying him enough attention.

It's difficult to get pictures on this tablet but here is the Stray enjoying the newly working boiler. Can't say I blame her as I'm basking in the heat too Grin
