Badtux the Snarky Penguin

In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin.

Religious fundamentalists are motivated by the sneaking suspicion that someone, somewhere, is having fun -- and that this must be stopped.

Feed me, you idiot!

The mighty hunter Fang, upset that his human is taking photos rather than feeding him, decides to take matters into his own hands... err... paw.

Great shot...it brings out the "panther" in him.

By the by, did you feed him?

I'm still posting, right? If I'd not fed him... hmm. Penguin. Tastes like chicken. ERRP!

I just read your story, Carl. I got Tux (the actual name of my cat) in much the same way you got your recently deceased cat. I walked up and down a long row of cats at the shelter. Most of the cats just ignored me. Tux batted at me. But he was pretty young (maybe 4 months), I wanted an older cat who wasn't so rambunctious. I walked back from the other end. Tux put his paw on the glass and meowed at me. I put my hand up against the glass and he rubbed up against the glass like he was trying to rub up against my hand.

Five minutes later, Tux and I were introduced in a "get acquainted" room, and an hour later he was at his new home. And now, three years later, he is 18 pounds of feline sleekness... and yeah, when he jumps up on my lap while I'm sitting at my computer, I notice it!

And yeah, when he's hungry, he tries to grab my hand and lead me to his food bowl. I was actually trying to get a picture of him begging for food, he has a cute little head-tilt thing going, but when I pulled out the camera he went, like, "That? Again? I want food, I don't want more camera!".

Yeah, at 18 pounds, he likes to eat :).
