Who says cats can't grin.They don't bother the TT, but they are hell on speaker grills!

The universe is a big place, perhaps the biggest.
Yep. He didn't chew up the Advents, I found them that way. He never gets on the TT though he has napped on my KEFs, but that issue is now solved.
Had it at a Chinese restaurant here, didn't like it. Seriously, the place was closed for serving cat, the restaurant was called Hunan Gardens. Both my lady and I got very sick after eating take-out there. I always order
More than once had a cat leap from the floor to my table while running, cat falls record ruined.

just me...
Nice pics - and you've got a pretty elegant looking little tiger there, Tom.

Kit is smart as a devil. He knows how to open the windows and let himself out. He can speak, ask questions and even put exclamation marks at the end of a sentence. No one knows what he's blabbering about - but he can and does.
His favorite game after 'rubber band tag' is 'cat and mouse'. He's always the cat, I'm always the mouse and it always ends good for him. No one but my wife picks him up for the fear of losing their eyes. He's 10 y/o now and I've dared tickle
his tummy just twice with both times him being anesthetized after seeing the vet. Yeah, definitely a tiger!
He loves the Jubals 'solar panels' for some reason:
...and he can be a big dopey shmoopy when he wants to:

An utterly barbaric practice which, thankfully, is illegal here in the UK.

My feline friend over here loves it when I tickle his tummy! He's just a big baby, despite being 5yr oldKit is smart as a devil. He knows how to open the windows and let himself out.

He also likes to cuddle (and sleep) with his plush toy!

Latest research indicates that the feline does have closer attachments to his/her masters than thought before. They may seem detached/distant/aloof...but the connection has been shown much stronger than supposed. A dog they will never be, but if you ever own a Siamese? It's as close as you will ever come to a having canine, eh? You never really own a cat. It's kind of a borrowed at best.

Most people (especially those who don't "own" one) don't seem to understand this. You don't own a cat ... it's actually the cat who owns /you/.Latest research indicates that the feline does have closer attachments to his/her masters than thought before. They may seem detached/distant/aloof...but the connection has been shown much stronger than supposed. A dog they will never be, but if you ever own a Siamese?

Our cat we had when I was a kid (Caesar) was an orange tabby and he, like all male cats, liked to go out and get into fights over territory rights, at least until he was neutered although, by that time it was a little too late. Anyway, one time he came home with both forelegs all infected and another abscess over his right eye.
We had to take him to the vet that time. He had to stay three days and when my dad and I went and got him, he was all over us. Just completely overjoyed. He was ramming his head into dad so hard, dad couldn't drive and I had to hold him. He proceeded to ram his head into me.
So much for cats not being attached.

I'm cat neutral. I'll tolerate one, but I'll likely never have another in my home. My grandmother's cat stinking loves me. It has helped having 2 kids allergic to them. I'm a dog person, always have been.

Sometimes it's better to have both.
One looks after the mice...the other, the postman!

That sounds like a bad night right there. Mine liked to do the flying leap from the back of the couch to the component rack (usually ending up on top of the turntable). Luckily she never decided to do it while the cover was up or I was listening to an album. In fact the only one to ruin a record due to carelessness this year has been me so I'm more dangerous to my stuff than the cat.
