God, they could almost be brothers.
Thomas is extremely friendly with people, especially strangers. He mugs B&B guests, goes in to see them when they are in bed when he can.
He gets into frozen stand-offs with our cats, and bit or clawed Somhairle’s tail which became infected and enormously swollen. Now the 19 year old Orange aka Tiddy Puss is gone, Thomas does not have the opposition of the prime opposition, the resident director of Homeland Security. I have not really worked out why he doesn't like his own home about half a mile away. His owners have been asked to fetch him, but he just returns here again. He is either in the garage or in our spare room - where he is shown in that pic, on top of a towel.
