All cats seem to revel in the surprise attack! One of mine used sit on the back of a chair then it would howl at you to come over and give it attention. Of course once you got in swiping distance up would come the paw and wallop! Another would grip your arm with its front paws and then with claws fully extended proceed to shred your under arm. It was playing. Seriously. All the time biting your fingers, the amount of times I ended up covered in blood. She was still a great cat. Had the wrong idea about what play is though.

Funny how that works with cats... They claw your arms open until you bleed and all you can do is go 'Aww, it wants to play! <3'
Mind control!

I gave my black and white kitten a purple streak all the way down her back with Lich purple once, i think it was Halloween or somethan. She was fine.

Scenic base for Speeder Typhoon. Having trouble with wobbly model syndrome, and cat seems resistant to pinning.

Eeps, maybe you could try magnets..?

Im considering fully magnetising the cat and then using it as a model transportation solution. Cat appears unimpressed at this stage.

Sometimes they can be uncooperative little bastards.

They make lovely bases.

Have you tried staples?

or a bigger hammer?

everything is better with a bigger hammer!

You could use a mixture of tin foil and elastic bands to fasion him a 'metal' hat for the magnetised speeder?!

Hot glue and shaving your cat could also work...

But only if you could endure the bloodshed (that would be your blood - not the cats)

But there in lies the challenge (and some steel gauntlets maybe )

That cat looks so ticked he has butterfly paint on him. That said I've painted my black german shepard with blood red before to make it look like Indian warpaint, he turned out alright....for a dog...

My cat ate my entire Skaven Mordiheim warband though. So that says something about thier intellience.

Skaven? As in, rats?

Sounds pretty smart to me. It wasn't injured by them, right? And the Skaven probably enjoyed it.

I dunno but he had fun I suppose, and I was out of a whole squad of skaven. And no he wasn't injured, thankfully.

Instead of your cat right?

I am going at lower initiative, so they always escape. They are agile little bastards.

This thread just keeps getting better.

You don't have to thunderhammer them in, you know. Maybe if you tried using a halberd?

I've got some new born kittens that are going to be TWC for about a week. Just glue 3 out of four paws down to the base. Double sided tape for the rider and we're all set.

Post pics of that, I would trade my sol to see that

Not many people know this, but if you paint your cat red, you get to move an extra D6" in your movement phase.

Useful tip, thanks!

I think if I tried to paint my cat red, he'd move 100xD6 and pretty sharpish too!

God, they are smart little buggers arn't they....a little to smart sometimes.....


I have two cats, one is a little house cat and is as usless as a two dollar bill. The other one tho, shes way to smart for her own good. She sits and talks with us at night time, telling us about her day. She turns up in the most random of places, like the linnin closet, in the coin part of my arcade game. But she never fails to amuse us......except when she brings home her 'little treats' for us. She will usually sit in the fromt yard with her half dead mouse batting it if it tries to get away.

Also when she was a kitten, she would junp on top of the book shelves and wait until someone was around, then start swatting pics and other stuff off.....but only if there is one of her 'humans' around....she also has several 'human shaped thrones' that she likes.....


So...in the end cats are jerks =o] I live mine, but there jerks.

But that's why we love them.
