I had a medium FRB on the bench awhile ago, packing it with newspaper to ship something out. Mr. Bill hopped up on the bench to see what I was doin'. I turned around to grab another newspaper, turned back and he looked at me as if to say "Tape it up, I'm ready."

Maybe we oughta' do 'im like that 'where's george?' box. Send 'im all over creation to spend a month with every member that wants to keep him a bit.

Keep ya' bourbon cabinet locked. I've caught him in my Jack Daniel's late at night.

He looks so cozy. Did he leave anything behind?

Spatty is my office cat. He sleeps next to the printer until he gets up and walks all over the desk, keyboard, me, the files, etc.
I will go to YouTube and search for cat fights and play the video. It really gets his attention when he is sitting in front of the screen!

That really is one spectacular looking cat! One question. Where is the rest of him? It a medium FRB like Dr Who's Tradis? Bigger on the inside than the outside?

That looks just like the cat we had and now my son has, all 25 pounds of Maine Coon. Boxes, laundry baskets and paper bags were favorite resting places...Ray

Janet and I have to be very careful before we shut the drier door on a load of laundry. Several times, bill has hopped up in the drier and we didn't know it until just before we shut the door.

Man, lemme tell ya', when he wants attention, he's down right insistent. I was sittin' up in bed last night readin' some Pete Capstick. Here comes Bill, right in my lap. I tried to nudge him out of the way. Yeah, right. Think again, Jim. So, I had to stop my readin' and pay a bit of attention to him. After a few minutes, he was happy and went on about his business.

I don't like his brother, George, for nothin'. Only time he's got any use for me is when I go to feed 'em. Lousy cat.

I have a 20 year old Maine Coon cat that looks just like Mr. Bill. Mine is named Thumbs because he has a extra digit where a thumb would be. I'm sure that he would enjoy visiting with Mr. Bill for a week or two, but I'm not sure I could afford the liquor bill ! I have to watch my drink carefully, or Thumbs has his head in my glass, lapping away.. With both of them, I would never get anything to drink in the evening. :)

Dogs have owners, cats have staff!

Jim, I always wanted a Maine Coon but since we have four cats already, I think my chance of getting one is rather slim. He is a handsome boy!

The extra thumb makes them polydactile. I just had one adopt me. Hemingway was known for his polydactiles down in Florida and their descendants still live at his house there.

Maybe Mr. Bill is working on his escape from death row???

He's been granted a pardon.

Thanks for the picture Jim! I have been wanting a cat, but to adopt one in Nevada as w renter it takes an act of Congress, a blessing from the Pope, and a secret handshake.
