    Belgians have a great sense of humour!
    "An official request for citizens to avoid tweeting anything that could inform terrorists what is going on resulted in a national outbreak of pet pics"

    A tense time, no doubt. But Belgium reacted – how else? – with cats.

    Instead of speculation about the sort of threat police might be reacting to, many people used the #BrusselsLockdownhashtag to post pictures of their pets.

    I have to turn in my kitty as well. He still sits around the house all day thinking and scheming about how to terrorize us when we return home. His favourite war tactic is to lay in wait until we're asleep and then lick our toes until we wake. If we try to retaliate, he gives us a scary body hug before running off. His ultimate gorilla warfare tactic is to bring us his ball and we better play fetch or else. He has already slept all day ........and knows that we are his prey at night. He is evil. Please help.

    Crazy cat lady here! :p Your cat needs companion to keep him active when you are not at home. We have 2 cats and you should see how much they play and chase each other.

    We tried Tillie. I recently took pity on a stray kitten and feed her for nearly a month. Occasionally, I would bring her into the house.......and they just hated each other. She would hiss. He would pounce.

    I had to find alternative home for the stray......even though she was so sweet and loving and it broke my heart.

    But Dex is my baby. He comes first.

    I have a head strong male bengal cat. He is king. He is beautiful....... and he knows it.

    Bengals are just awesome. What a great personality. They're all crazy - that's just cats for you. But we love them.

    bengals as super intelligent and playful and full of character. mine plays fetch and does high 5s.....and loves playing chasings around the house. bengals are very vocal and will tell you when they want something. mine follows me around wherever i go.
