    Wait… alaric… like alaric the goth? One of the cats that usually wanders in my garden is called theodoric the goth, and we call him “el gordo” (which in spanish rhimes wirh “godo” and means “fat boy” in a amicable way)

      Like Alaric the Goth! Naming a black cat after the wrong kind of goth seemed funny to me. Also “Alaric” means king of everything, which seemed about right for him. I am glad to hear that his Ostrogothic kinsman is faring well

    Why not just say you tucked the cat in? Does anybody believe that a cat pulled a blanket over itself so neatly? Bizarre, the lies we tell.

      My black cat has a chair with a blanket draped across it that she will tuck herself into daily. It’s her blanket fort and everyone must check before sitting in it.

      My cat used to do that all the time. Burrowed under the blanket and then turned around and stuck her head out.

      Well because I didn’t? Bizarre thing to be so hostile about. He didn’t pull it over himself, he just burrowed under it

      My cats regularly burrow into the blankets and end up half out, a number of times they end up looking like they’d been tucked in.
