Oh heck, you said, "in back, and I read, in black". What a dumb a** I can be.
That's Trouble, and boy was she. I have had cats all my life, and I have never had one as strange and bad as that one. She didn't care about discipline, so it didn't work on her. No matter what I did to protect my other animals from her, she'd work around it.
When I couldn't keep her from picking up my yearling box turtles and hauling them around, hiding them from me, and using them for batting practice I decided she needed
a different place to live. I believe she's one of those that's different enough she was going to grow to be a very unusual adult, and I'm sorry to miss out on that. But my main responsibility is to protect my own pets, and not let a rescue hurt them. She's go into the box turtle table, pry the lid (1/2 plywood) up and pull out an adult box turtle, knock it on the floor and play soccer with it. Same with my yearlings. I just got to be afraid she'd hurt one of my yearlings, or the adults could only be dropped onto the floor just so many times....She wasn't just named trouble for fun. Damn she was bad....But I really liked her, it was hard to let her go, but ALL my animals are happier now, it's obvious.
So the tuxedo cat is Maks, not Trouble
