I'm considering feline homicide

<Backround>
I’ve had a feline overlord for the past few years now. My Most Gracious Queen Molly accepts me as her humble servant and, now and then, even allows my my lap the honor of being her temporary resting place.

The only problem is that she hates my daughter. I only get to see her (my kid) on the weekends, and the other house is (Og forbid!)a *dog * :eek: house, so she comes over smelling like, well, dogs. Not to my inferior nose have you, but to Most Gracious Queen Molly, she must smell like Lassie cubed. Hisses, claw swipes, the works.

So, I decided to get my little girl her own cute, cuddly little 6-week old kitty of her own. She even got to pick it out herself. It was precious She wanted to name it immediately, but I told her to hold off and observe his personality and give him an appropriate name.

That was two weeks ago. His name is now “Einstein”, with a nickname of “Little Boy”. (Think Hiroshima).

He has destroyed my house three times over. No, really. Here is a picture of my living room:

His favorite hobby is to climb up the top of a baker’s rack that holds precious family photos. There he waits for an unsuspecing soul to pass by, then takes a Great Flying Leap (scraping the ceiling on his way down) to pounce on said soul. Needless to say, the off-balance-as-it-is bakers rack (full of precious family heirlooms and the like) teeters for a few seconds before coming crashing down.

Og forbid if Most Gracious Queen Molly is the unsuspecting soul. All kinds of hilarity ensues at that point.

I’ve rebuilt over the devastation that was my home three times over.

My question is, when does feline homicide become temporary insanity in the eyes of a jury?

Oh my. The joys of pets.

I’m sure your daughter destroyed some things when she was younger. In time Little Boy will outgrow this (or just be bigger and have more force behind the destruction.)

Shouldn’t that be… felicide?

Every time you kill a kitten, Jeebus masturbates…

If 12 of me were on the jury, you wouldn’t be convicted; you’d get a medal.

Owner of 2 worthless cats and an idiotic French Bulldog…

Oh he’s just a widdow kidden, you can’t hurt him. Punishing kittens for kitten-like behavior is very bad form, karma-wise.

I’d move the precious valuables somewhere less prone to breakage for a few months.

I can’t do that. I don’t have a girlfriend right now.

With a user name like yours, Little Boy would luuuuuuuuv you!

Amen brother! Preach it!

Jesus. Pick up the place a little, would ya?

Yep. :smiley: My cats wuv me berry much because I smell like mice and I’m really good at catching them.

(Seriously, I can catch mice. Of course, the ones I catch are very inbred and not very bright - for rodents.)

Hehehe, he’ll grow out of it. For the time being, put anything breakable or that you don’t want him to knock over away. And good luck.

Good thing he’s so cute or he’d be a purse by now, eh? At least that’s what I tell The Sphincter Sisters and their evil leader Cosmo the Annoying.

The temporary relocation of your family jewels, um I mean heirlooms, is, as has been suggested your best bet. He’ll grow out of it eventually.

On a side note,how do he and Her Majesty get along?

They chase each other around the house, jumping on things. I *assume *they’re playing…

Funny, I seem to be missing the kitty pictures…

Yes. Feline homicide would be killing a person, using a cat as the murder weapon. Heh.

If you ever decide you’re done with that idiotic French Bulldog of yours, you let me know! I’ll take it off your hands lickety-split. [/hijack]

Feline homicide is when they kill you. :slight_smile:

Mew.

Your baker’s rack should not fall over just because a kitten jumps off the top. Is it against a wall? If so, it can be easily secured. If not, place something heavy on the bottom rack.

I hate cats, so I stand behind you 100%.

I have had bad experiences with crazy cats so I totally understand but don’t kill the kitten embrace it! enjoy the love!
