Overlord cat – YOU WILL OBEY.

As a favour to a mutual friend, we’re looking after Sooty – a female long-haired black cat – at the moment. She’s very cute, greets you with a nice ‘mew?’ when you walk into the room, and has this hilarious habit of jumping up to seemingly impossible-to-reach places and sitting there surveying the horizon. I guess a lot of cats do this, but ours doesn’t yet. Incredibly, she never knocks anything over, either. Very graceful – unlike our kitty, who seems to be able to knock everything off a desk just by looking at it in a certain way.

The camera flash had the unintentionally awesome side effect of making her eyes look like lasers, so I’ve dubbed this one “Overlord Cat”.

I, for one, welcome our new laser-powered feline overlords.
