My cat was called Thug and behaved a lot like that. Little *bleep* went and died on me on Boxing Day morning.

Sorry to hear that. Over the years we have lost a number of cats to cars, and a few had to be put down because of serious health problems. The only one who went of natural causes died the day he was booked into to the vet for what we expected to be the final visit but was so ill that morning that I just had him curled up on my lap until he stopped breathing. It was easier on the cat, not so much for me.

Thug moved in on us last year - an adorable and adoring monster. Unfortunately, his main dietary preference is cat and our other four are not happy about it.

Thanks. Don't think it gets easier no matter how many come and go. He had a liver problem - we were keeping him as long as he was enjoying fuss, but overdid it one day. Stayed all night trying to make him feel better but c'est la vie.

A cat with a taste for cat is a bit of a problem mind.

Yup. We've ended up trying to create thug-free safe zones in the house, but it gets tricky because he adores his people and closed doors are a challenge.

On Authorly Disappointment

One must disagree a little in that if everyone walked into this with eyes wide open, I think the number of authors would reduce quite dramatically. I think a touch of naivety is a powerful tool for getting people up the first part of the mountain.

Of course, it does lead to a certain amount of authorly pain down the road but, I'd suggest, no more than is in our natures to take from such experiences anyway.
