No, he's just a cat.

I've got these 4 polecat-ferret hybrids I'm looking after for a rescue. (Just recapping). A mum, a dad and their two young adult kits. The poor dad's had a hard life and doesn't trust humans. He bites first and asks questions later. Powerful lad as well. Like a short hairy conga eel. A small length of muscle. I would call him Length, but his name is Mr. Badger. He is just wonderful though. I have to very careful not to upset him, but otherwise he is very sweet. I take him for walks - most ferrets want to do their own thing on walks, but he follows you. I have him on a long lead and he just potters about following me. He's great. The girls are likable as well, I should say. I'm prejudiced against ferrets who are poor at being walked though.

Oh, Malcolm often has a sneaky look (and usually IS up to something.)I didn't think it was possible for a GP to look sneaky, but he definitely does

Oh my god what an absolutely beautiful kitty!!!
Lost Loki today. He sneaked out the door behind me and hid under a rose bush. He then pottered over to Iceland where he rummaged around in the bins. The staff caught him and made a makeshift cage out of crates. He escaped much. By the time I came to get him they had built a veritable fort knox for ferrets. He was frantic and wet. He loves his home and he's been lost before - that's how he ended up with us. Alls well...

I don't know what sex it is. I shall have a look later.

OU: if it's a neutered male you'll never be able to tell what sex it is unless he starts washing himself a little too ... um ... energetically for the truth to remain under wraps. but afaik all calicos are female anyway. she / it is a heartbreakingly gorgeous cat - if I was looking after her i'd find it tough to leave the house.
Glad Frank's recovery is going well - she's losing a bit more of the Voldemort factor every day ... but I must admit earless kittehs freak me the hell out (even, or maybe especially, the Scottish Fold ones where their ears are MEANT to be mere nubbins). And I can't help wondering how it's affecting Frank's experience of the world ... given all we're told about cats' super senses bla bla bla - has her behaviour changed (other than being mightily pissed off) after the operation? Does she keep whipping her head around a lot to look at stuff she can't pick up by ear any more?
I wonder if vets can invent / have invented prosthetic ears or ear implants for cats.... surely if it was worth inventing fake scrota-fillers for dogs, this should be the next cosmetic frontier.

I wonder what it is about paper that they love so much?

No dialogue. Just plot.
Especially the paper you happen to be reading.
I think it's more about:
i) specialness
ii) attention
rather than paper, per se.
Nigel sits on whatever's different on whatever surface she's on.
If she's on our bed, she'll sit / sleep on my dressing gown. If she's on our sofa, she'll sleep on a cushion. If she's on a desk, she'll sleep on a piece of paper. If she's on the floor, she'll sleep in her cardboard box.
If the desk was made out of paper, I bet she'd sleep on a piece of wood.
And, obv, paper is attention paper, too.
