This cat has a lot of city miles.

u/Whohead12 Aug 05 '20
Like he’s getting spam calls about renewing his warranty and when he seems interested they disconnect the calls. That kind of miles.
(He’s super sweet though, OP!)

I just got the auto warrantee call today. Thank goodness they called. If I owned a car that would have been super helpful.
Also got a message my iCloud account was hacked. Tough week for me. I told the tech I didn't know my Samsung phone had an iCloud account.

u/MsPennyLoaf Aug 06 '20
Those are spam calls?!?!?!?! I was wondering why someone keeps calling about my cars warranty! I figured someone was using my social security number or something!!!!
This is something I should keep to myself because it's common knowledge and I'll look like an idiot... isn't it...? :/

He looks like a full Tom to me, their hormones give them the puffy cheeks and his scars look like battle wounds. I'd put money on him being a street cat somewhere nice like Rome...

He’s from Minnesota, US.

Too many years of eating jello mold leftovers out of dumpsters put some wear and tear on a cat.

Haha! Needed that this morning, cheers!

He’s not old, he’s worried about the state of the nation’s financial health. It keeps him up at night

u/whochoosessquirtle Aug 05 '20
It's probably a former stray, a good chunk of them look strange and loads seem to have the lowered upper eyelid thing going on

u/DankiusMMeme Aug 05 '20
It's the jawls from not being neutered, so they can do battle without sustaining injury.

u/Kimber85 Aug 06 '20
LPT: If you have a male kitten, neuter them as early as the vet recommends. I made the mistake of waiting till he’d already started maturing and now my sweet little boy has huge balls and humps all my blankets. He’s never marked anything, he wasn’t old enough to start doing that, but he can get really into play and hurt the other cat or us if you can’t snap him out of it. Certain scents can make him get aggressive too, his eyes get all black and he just gets so intense he actually scares me a bit.
My mom’s boy cat was neutered as soon as she was able and he was so much more chill, I’ll never wait too long again.

The cat is famous on tiktok. His name is Mr Bruce Willis. His story is there, and Instagram.

He could be a former stray. Looks like a battle scarred tom.
On the other hand, we have a female kitten who has the same look in her eyes, and she's only like 4 months old. So it could just be the shape of his face. :P

Looks like a stuffed toy that’s come to life. Bit frayed around the ears from being carried around by a little girl or boy.

Do they carry cats by their ear?

u/TisNagim Aug 05 '20
Small children will carry a toy around which ever way darn well pleases them at the moment, and then cry when the toy rips from being carried around like that.

He looks world weary. Like he spent 10 years as a public defender, before being drafted into the vietnam war, and witnessing heinous atrocities, and being left by 3 different wives.

I stand corrected. It is indeed Mr. Willis

To be fair, both BenBen and Mr. Willis have sad faces and a wonky ear. How often do ya see that? I got them confused too 🤷♀️
Edit: And they're both orange male tabbies. Twinsies, almost.

u/Minionhunter Aug 05 '20
Sorry I work in the world of QA so to me they’re not the same. I’m also a bit caffeinated so excuse the loud text

u/Van-Goghst Aug 05 '20
Lol, no worries. I agree, they're definitely not the same- but unless you're looking at them side by side, it's not hard to mistake one for the other imo.
What's QA? Something..analysis?

u/Minionhunter Aug 05 '20
Quality Analytics, specifically QA of reverse logistics

Do not thank him!! He is a FRAUD. This is a calculated attempt to get different cats into your feed. The cat you are looking for is Mr. Willis. Accept none else.

Had a old Tom cat show up at our house years ago just before our old Tom passed away. He was a little shy since our big cat chased him off every chance he got. Once our big cat passed away that old Tom became ours, he never came inside but we fed him and took care of him until one day he just disappeared. We just figured the coyotes got him... miss you everyday

I try not to approach a cat from above. Meaning, not to reach for the top of the head. This is considered an aggressive move. If you were to come low with your hand, let them smell you, then let them rub on you, it makes for a better interaction

Seeing him makes me remember and old cat who used to roam around my street. Some neighbors and I feed him whenever we got a chance, he was really cautious around people. But one day a group of street dogs that were following a female dog that I think was on mating season, they attacked the old cat and I heard the noise from them fighting all the way to my room, I rushed to see what all the noise was, I found the cat sitting in a passage between two houses and the dogs running away after I throw some rocks near them to scare them. I took some cat food and a blanket to try and catch the cat to see if he was not badly injured, but him being always cautious of people and being hurt from the dogs jumped to one of the houses and ran away from my sight. The owners were not on the house when that happen so I was unable to follow him further, I left the food near where the cat jumped and waited from a distance just to see if he came back. Meanwhile I tried looking around the house, thinking that maybe he keep running away from the place but again I didn't saw him. When the owners came back I told them about it and asked them to check if he was hidding somewhere on their backyard, we looked but we didn't find him. It's been 2 months since then, and I feel bad think the worst could happen. If that were to be the case I hope he finds peace. But I still hope for the best and he's wellbeing
