My goodness, what a handsome creature. Somehow when I look at him I imagine a hybridization of cat and owl.

A while back, when a couple of mice got into our apartment, our property manager gave us sticky traps for them, which are supposedly more humane (having used them, I don't think that's true at all!). C picked up the first one to see what had happened with it, and the mouse bit her. But the hospital emergency room declined rabies prophylaxis, saying it was never an issue with mice. I'm glad to say they turned out to be right!

He is not my cat, so he just spends all his time with me and in my apartment. But he isn't a bad cat. He was just having a bad evening.

What a pretty cat. My wife was bitten by one of our cats. He had gotten one of his paws trapped in our TV stand. He was afraid and bit her hand to the bone. I was able to get him released but the damage was done. She ended up in the hospital for four days from the infection from that cat bite. Cat bites can be nasty if deep enough. Both my wife and the cat are fine.

Good to know!

I have a high resistance to infection due to my injury-heavy, dirt-eating youth, but this one nearly got me. The antibiotics were NOT fun.

Ooh, you're right, he's a great model for a gryphlet (barn owl/house cat gryphon.)

Are we likely to get a GURPS PDF release schedule for 2024, as we did for 2023, or was that a one-time experiment?

We have approved schedules for the rest of 2024 and all of 2025, but I cannot share them until I receive explicit permission. I'll see what The Powers That Be have to say . . .
