There seems to be quite a number of paper modellers who have cats - is there some connection ? Cats like to play with pieces of paper, we like to 'play' with pieces of paper

Cats are bad enough, but militant cat owners are worse.

WS 30, here's the post op report: cats can be overly territorial. Your feline friend saw the Wildcat, saw it as a threat, and dealt with it accordingly. The Boeing was collateral damage.

That's why I keep a few sacrificial models around. While the cat are chewing it up, I throw the real model together, then encase it in carbonite.

As a dedicated dog owner who's probably a little ignorant to such things why am I getting the vibe that in households with cats, the resident humans are lower down the pecking order?

There is a cat character based RPG (role playing game) where humans are referred to as 'burdens'.

I read somewhere online to line your countertops with aluminum foil, and cats will stay off because they do not like the feel of foil on their feet. So I tried it on my wife's doll shelf. The cat jumped up, knocked the foil off, and destroyed it.
I don't understand why that didn't work. I read it online, so it MUST be true!

There's a saying: "Dogs have owners. Cats have staff."
