I wasn't sure where Alaric was until I went to get my shoes and found that he had tucked himself in for a nap : cat

Alaric? Is he a Visigoth or Ostrogoth?

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 2 points 3 days ago

Visi, he is named for the sacker of Rome

Wait... alaric... like alaric the goth? One of the cats that usually wanders in my garden is called theodoric the goth, and we call him "el gordo" (which in spanish rhimes wirh "godo" and means "fat boy" in a amicable way)

Like Alaric the Goth! Naming a black cat after the wrong kind of goth seemed funny to me. Also "Alaric" means king of everything, which seemed about right for him. I am glad to hear that his Ostrogothic kinsman is faring well

My cats regularly burrow into the blankets and end up half out, a number of times they end up looking like they’d been tucked in.

My cat used to do that all the time. Burrowed under the blanket and then turned around and stuck her head out.

Well because I didn't? Bizarre thing to be so hostile about

My black cat has a chair with a blanket draped across it that she will tuck herself into daily. It's her blanket fort and everyone must check before sitting in it.
