*yes, the bastard rats are back - in the yard AND in the bathroom crawlspace that we paid to have secured. Fuck knows how they've managed to get back in, every possible opening has been sealed 
Anyway, Jocky is having a great time hunting the fuckers, and I decided to let him out at night after all, cos he'll be mostly busy with them rather than venturing further onto roads.

If he's anything like Lilith, he'll be bringing them back to give you as gifts! Or bring them back alive to torture.*yes, the bastard rats are back - in the yard AND in the bathroom crawlspace that we paid to have secured.

Don't!! I'm hoping he'll just catch and dismember them OUTSIDE!

It's
for you, but a house/yard full of rodents is the best gift you can give a cat (just looking on the bright side).Mind you I say that but I hate it when we get mice, even though I am still ridiculously proud of Jakey the Brave Hunter for the time he caught 7 in less than 48 hours.

I'm fucked off because I paid £120 to get every single ingress point sealed, and they STILL got in!

Banana for scale
We have created a monster with giving Vastra more soft food because now she YELLS every time we get a container of it out until it's in her bowl. gsv reckons it's because she is worried we're going to eat it, eg
Vastra: MAOW! [translate: DON'T EAT MY FOOD!]
Us: We're not going to eat your food
Vastra: MAOW! [DON'T EAT MY FOOD!]
Us: We're not going to eat your food
Vastra: MAOW! [DON'T EAT MY FOOD!]
Us: We're not going to eat your food
Vastra: MAOW! [DON'T EAT MY FOOD!]
Us: We're not going to eat your food
Repeat until food in bowl
Vastra: MAOW! [translate: DON'T EAT MY FOOD!]
Us: We're not going to eat your food

I love this cat so much! First thing in the morning. And last thing every night. Toby toes plonks himself by the side of me for endless strokes.
So so sweet!

Did she find your stash of mdma?!
I love an affectionate cat. Jocky is being super-affectionate with me lately, he has to snuggle in as close as he can get and gives me head bumps every day.I love this cat so much!

We've got one of those beds. He used it ONCE

There's the thing. He's not affectionate at any other times. He's quite indifferent really.
He has more time for me than he does everyone else. But he does love this morning and night time thing.

Bob, chillin'. This is his go-to position when he's on me

That's a shame, they're not cheap! Stan had good use out of ours, and now these two seem keen too. Anything that stops them sleeping in their preferred position, on the shoulders of all my clothes in the wardrobeWe've got one of those beds. He used it ONCE

take me to the feeling
He woke up from an 8hr sleep in a cardboard box, ran over and started dishing out the love. Could it be...dinner time?

Your forecast was accurate, a blankie front did indeed move in about midweek and seems to be purrsisting into the weekend

Changing the facts
Cat has just arrived on the bed. He’s positioned himself with his back legs on either side of my forearm. He is hugging me with his rear end. And purring, with his head as far away as he can manage.
It does mean that I can hold the end of his tail and play with the tip, which is something he tolerates.

Oh thank you I love that, I do too - and that feeling is perhaps magnified when you realise there's nothing going on in his head except fluffy candyfloss and thoughts about food - he really is as daft as they come bless him

Have had 3 cats.
Radar was incredibly intelligent, could climb like a monkey, very agile and athletic and nothing was out of reach, very overexciteable, seemed to have a very active and occasionally painful (to us) sense of humour.
Sonic was intelligent but less devious/mischievous, very intense - he would put every ounce of concentration and effort into one game of fetch for example. Absolutely adored me and viewed me as his territory.
Jakey is daft as a brush, has regularly given us the fear watching him try to make a leap (and frequently misses, falls off the edge of the sofa etc., his balance is not what one might expect in a feline - when he used to try to copy the others to go and sit on top of the sitting room door, one of us would charge across the room to shut the door because it was a disaster waiting to happen), sweetest cat in the entire universe although not entirely sure what universe he is in, loves everyone. (A lot of that possibly due to slight birth anoxia).

I bought what I thought would be an irresistible cat bed for mine. He ignored it totally so it went back to the range for a refund. I also bought a scratching post that he wasn't interested in.We've got one of those beds. He used it ONCE
I don't know what I was thinking. I've had cats all my life and they've all managed without such things.
