Here's mine guarding some bottled brews a couple years ago. I think that dang badger got him a couple weeks ago.

Tobias, seeing if my Simcoe IIPA really does smell like cat piss.
Apparently, someone dumped a bunch of kittens a couple weeks old near our developement years ago now. Smoky Nagata was a few week old lil guy, hiding in our garage when we'd come back from shopping after work in the late afternoon. Finally tricked him into the house where we fed him & gave him a warm spot in the man cave to sleep. Big nads for a male cat. He was a great mouser too.
SWMBO and I are planning to adopt a cat at the end of the month, it'll be nice to have some company while I brew
Has anyone tried making cat treats out of used grain, by the way? I've heard of making dog treats.

Cats won't generally and probably shouldn't have grains. Unlike dogs they are for the most part strictly carnivores. They're diet is almost all protein and animal fat.
My cat has occasionally gotten ahold of a piece of my dog's grain biscuits and she will usually play with them for awhile. Then she'll end up plopping them into the water dish because she knows I have to then clean it.
This is the same cat that digs foam out of my old couches and deposits it in the water dish. Nothing like wet foam chunks hidden all over the house.

Somebody turned your cat inside out ..
Sorry couldn't resist :fro:
Some friends of mine have a hairless cat, but her skin is kind of a grey-blue instead of pink. I like to annoy them by asking how their "iguana" is doing
How about a brew cat like this?

My new roommate Pepper hasn't shown much interest in brewing with me yet, but she's very helpful in making sure I don't bring work home
Looks a lot like my brew cat. She's a real @$$hole.
Your cat looks like an @$$hole.
She definitely has what SWMBO calls "resting ***** face."
She's a sweetheart though, not very interested in playing but super-affectionate.I just assumed all cats were @$$holes. Ours is, he bullies the dog who is 5 times his size.

Ha, me too!
Dogs, chickens, cats, parrots...but none are very interested in brewing. The chickens do like spent grains though.

Dang. I wish my backyard looked that good. But interestingly enough, a few years ago, a Mulberry tree started growing in the front of the old garden space. A year or so ago, another one started growing. Gonna transplant the little one out front in the spring. Mulberry hefe sounding better all the time.

It could be, my latest flock is Barred Rock, Golden Wyandotte and Silver Wyandotte. So it's one of them.

Added a rescued Collared Aracari to the menagerie yesterday, but I don't think he's gonna make it.
