I'm wondering about that too. Will ask about age and health status for the cat. I have a sinking feeling it will have to be rehomed. Which is sad.

eta: Good point by you Theo. I'll do that.

So what does it mean if I hit my thumb with a hammer and shout "Motherfucker!"?

That sounds like something one of the Greek gods would do.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You want to blame a motherfucker? Like, say, Tino?

OK, next time I hit my thumb with a hammer, I'm yelling "Tino!"

hip deep in pie

I have a friend whose cat howls at night. He just gets lonely when people are asleep.

And Pico used to wake me up with cries at night when he hunted toys. He shut up once I acknowledged him. This often led to me to trying placate him without having to get up, and yelling down the stairs, half asleep, "Very good Pico. You are a brave kitty."

“Not dead yet!”

OK, next time I hit my thumb with a hammer, I'm yelling "Tino!"

Tino's God?

No. Just a god. An evil one.

He must be one of the old school vengeful ones.

Yeah. Maybe he was Cthulhu's sidekick.

eta: Will Cthulhu smite me because I spelled His name wrong?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Next time I hit my thumb with a hammer I'm shouting "Cthulu!"

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I don't think he needs that much of an excuse.
