You Capture : My cat is a jerk.

The assignment over at You Capture was Animals.
I thought that I would introduce y'all to my naughty cat.
His name is Atticus and he is a trouble maker.
He's an outside cat because he wore out his welcome inside our home.
He tipped over glasses and pooped all over the place.

Now, he runs the neighborhood.
He gets in fights with other cats all the time and my neighbor
told me recently that he trapped their sweet little Persian under their porch
and that any time the kitty tried to come out, he would chase her back into hiding.
Then he would eat all of her food out of her food dish as the
poor kitty watched in terror from under the porch
Then, she confessed that her husband throws corncobs at him on a regular basis.

Let's face it, my cat is a jerk and a big ol' bully.
I mean, just look at him...

Doesn't he just look like trouble?

That must be Kitty Paw's big mean brother. You'll have to check out my post today on her. It's pretty funny if I do say so myself. :)

He's probably just misunderstood. :)

Maybe he's from my cat's extended family. My cat goes through screen doors or screened windows if I try to keep him inside and terrorizes the other cats. Seeing as we live in the most "stray cats populated" part of the city says a lot I think.

Your cat does look like he's king of his castle, master of his domain !

Too funny. The cat bully. Have you taken out his man bits? It may knock him down a few pegs.

Oh my goodness Leigh... My cat is a tuxedo cat(dressed for any occasion) and he gives me that same bully look!
He loves life both indoors & outdoors and has come home a little beat-up from time to time.
We always wonder what the other cat looks like or what it his "dinner" fighting back?

I wish I could make my cats be outdoor cats! But the last cat I put outside got herself struck by lightening!! So, I'm stuck..... But that is a beautiful cat!!!!

I think he looks quite affronted at being called a Jerk!!! I did laugh at this, and I think he would get on with Dexter cat! Today Dexter (son) was laughing as Dexter cat tried to not let him go between our couch and armchair without a wrestle! Cats, I love them the cheeky monkeys they are.

Made me laugh....he does look like trouble.
The visual of someone throwing corncobs made me laugh out loud.

Great photo!

We had a cat like that when we were young...a big, gray tom cat. His head was enormous, and he was always getting in fights. But we loved him.

His name was Fury.

He does totally look like a jerk. But a thoroughly entertaining one. He looks like the kind of cat who will butt your hand with his nose when he wants you to pet him. Or when he wants you to move. Or when he just wants something.

He definitely looks like he is plotting something.

If you find scratches on your camera lens you will know who did it.

Anika said...

But he makes up for it by being super cute, eh?

Alyssa said...

Your cat is cute but with that face I wouldn't cross him! He is definitely the boss!

Unknown said...

Ahhh the attitude of cats... you apparently know the one, that we are their pets not vice versa lol. He is gorgeous...
