As you can see, he is perfectly fine if I touch his teeth. I would've grabbed a toothbrush for this, but I couldn't find his.

Messing with his claws, and the little divot in his paw. pretty much any cat will take your arm off if you try this.

This is how he prefers to be rubbed. I've seen him simply get up and walk away from people because they weren't rubbing his belly, or they weren't rubbing him fast enough.

Here's the best cat tax I can get for you guys.

Some of you have met him before. Some haven't. To the latter group, meet Griffey, the world's most tolerant cat.

His toe beans!
