[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 647056, member: 1963"] Well, he's learning to be naughty, which is actually a good sign. Up until very recently,he's been walking on eggshells, so to speak. I came home to find the most of the house TPed. Seems Thomas had discovered that if he grabs the roll of toilet paper by the end and takes off with it, he can festoon the entire house with the stuff! Other than that, he likes to bite buttons off of my shirts when he's sitting in my lap, and has bitten through a charger cord for one of my e-cigs (luckily, I have a spare) Most other incidents are caused by him not having a clue how big he is, and by his being a klutz on top of that. The other day, I was unpacking groceries after having bought quite a bit of fish and meat, including a large tray of ground round that was on sale. I put Squeaky in her crate while I was re-packaging the meat and fish as she is a terrible food thief. I didn't think much about Thomas as he doesn't like people food. I got the fish and pork chops re-packaged for freezing, put them in the freezer, and turned towards the table to get the ground round, only to find Thomas standing knee deep in very expensive hamburger! He wasn't eating it. Apparently, he stepped on the tray of burger, and had gone right through the packaging. In fact, he looked totally grossed out. I yelled at him to get off the table, grabbed the meat, and proved that I've been living alone for too long: I simply cleared out the squished meat that had been in contact with Thomas; grubby paws, put it in the fridge for treats for Squeaky, and divided and packaged the rest of it. I figured I'm the only one who is going to eating it, and after nearly 36 years with the beasties, I'm probably immune to cat germs anyways. That said, I plan on crating BOTH cats when dealing with groceries from here on out. Other than that, Thomas is doing well, though living with him sometimes feels like living with a furry, drunken bulldozer operator, complete with small bulldozer. He makes up for it by being sweet, cuddly, and mostly adorable. He is, however, quite frequently told that he's lucky I love him. [/QUOTE]
