Odd decision

So, I have decided to start a blog. Odd decision. Have really no idea where this is going. We'll see...

So first of all a picture of the cat that is not grey but always hungry. He currently weighs in at 10.7 kg. Heavy bones, I guess.

His name is Struppi, which is the German name of Milou, Tintin's dog. Why? Well, when the vet asked me what his name was, so she could put it down in his "passport", I did not want "alter Pisser" in there (which translates into exactly what you think). I had been calling him that because the first time he entered my home, he urinated against my beautiful sofa (managed to get the stains out completely and have therefore forgiven him). He was stray cat, who decided I was the one who was going to feed him from now on. How could I say no? He looked shaggy, which in German is "struppig", so it seemed a good idea at the time. And since he does not listen to anything I call him, it doesn't really matter.
