Badger came into our lives 5 weeks prior to this. The other half has always had cats, he’s taken a slight dislike to my dog Pickle and wanted a big ginger tom cat, so we skipped off to the cat rescue and were shown a 2 year old Bengal named Star. He immediately jumped out of the box, rubbed up and down us and seemed to approve of us as his new owners. The following week we turned up with the cat box and agreed to foster Star until we we’re sure he would get along with our dog Pickle. We also renamed him Badger, Star was way to girly for a big bad cat like this and after seeing a YouTube clip of ‘Badger attack dog’ and several more clips of feisty Bengals we figured Badger was the best name. Close second was Dave.
Since the night Badger disappeared he’s taken a liking to creating stories about himself, Not just us making up stories wherever we go we make jokes about the Badger or Leopard coming with us like the time we went to a drive in movie at Halloween and watched Scream, the windows kept misting up having the engine off and we were bumming cold, laughter kept us warm as we joked about bringing Badger – anyone walking past will see hand prints on the window being dragged down as Badger attacks but actual real Badger stories where what he’s done has been so hilarious he warrants his very own story.
