    See? Cat's have staff. Dogs have owners.

    Would someone mind telling this to my dog?

    This is clearly anti-feline propaganda designed to disrupt peaceful coexistence between peace-loving populations of canines, felines, and mice (whatever the Latin name of those is). Typical American Imperialist propaganda. Fake news. Sad.

    A female co-worker was telling me a while ago about her friend's cat, called Wheels. The name is somewhat ironic due to the cat's general inactivity.

    Its owner had left the cat sitting on the floor in front of the washing machine one evening and when he got up in the morning the cat hadn't moved an inch from where it had been placed the night before! So not exactly one of the wheels of industry. :)

    I have to ask, was the cat alive?

    Yes, just very lazy I guess. ;)

    I suppose the owner must have to 'place' the cat in its litter tray too.

    The mind boggles. Maybe he's had a bad experience with that in the past, if you get my drift!

    Considering the fact that cars usually stand still 90% of the time, I guess he was just living up to his name ;-)

    Yes, I read somewhere that cats sleep up to 80% of their time! That's certainly true for my two cats, that and washing themselves.

    I was looking for photos of Bond actors with cats/dogs (I have my reasons OK?) and I found this:

    Yes, that's lovely. Looks like a kitten. I've seen that one before online somewhere. Thanks for sharing it with us here, @Agent_99.

    Yes!! And:

    I love how disreputable and smug the cat looks. A face that says "I've seen things you wouldn't believe, and also fathered 1,000 kittens."

    Looks like one of Hemingway's polydactyl cats, too.

    More appropriately, Dalton should have been reading A Farewell to Arms at Hemingway House. At least a cat is present and correct! ;)

    That is a great photo!

    The cats at the Hemingway House all have thumbs- and as such can wield weapons ;)

    Lovely pictures. Funny, I think Dalton looks far cooler and at ease with the cat than he ever was playing James Bond. They have a relaxing effect on people.

    Those are great pics. Tim is hanging out.

    Cats are relaxing, my little buddy is sitting with me right now.

    I never knew that cats were capable of such noises! It makes for an interesting study in cat behaviour:

    Here's my friend's cat Moritz (Ritzy) disapproving of our evening's entertainment last Saturday:

    Did Moritz take part in the Pierce Brosnan Drinking Game, @Agent_99?

    Yes, that's a bit too young, I guess :))

    Oh, Moritz looks very much like my older cat Kitty. See the video in the OP for more details.
