Tig’s way cuter and sweeter than Catbert. Lucky you get to clip his claws, I haven’t been so lucky gave up really on my meowers.

Keeping the lid closed has another beneficial effect, keeps the cat hair out of the computer.

Liana, if it shows up, I’m checking M.’s credit cards. It’s just the sort of thing he would do.

Whoa, Kate… long time no see.

I had Tig’s predecessor when he was 12 weeks old. He was a good cat, but he wasn’t as sweet-tempered as Tig3.0. Some animals are just born honeybunnies.

My vet told me that there’s a mean streak in Maine coons, as well as the super-mellow streak. Looks like I’m going to experience both.

He’s adorable. I have to agree with John about getting him while he’s young. My Pippin is the most loving, sweet-natured cat but I’m 99% confident that’s because I got him when he was just 5 weeks old so now he thinks I’m his Mommy.

I want pics when the pallet-load of tuna in spring water shows up at your door.

He just lies on it or stands on it, Snoopy. And looks very smug when I see him and tell him to get off the computer.

But I’m remembering to close the laptop more and more these days.

Pretty soon, Tig is going to be putting up his own posts!

A word of caution, though – I have been already twice left with an unusable laptop due to several button being ripped of the keyboard. Guess who did it. Since then my first reflective action when leaving the desk is to put the lid down on the darn thing.

Catbert. I didn’t think of that.

Well, it’s better than Dogbert.

Again, you really hit the Tig lottery. I think it has to do with handling him a lot when he was very young. That definitely helps behavior.
