We kept a house for a Pixie Bobcat, who lived with us for 17 years - amazing span considering.
Thomas the Brute was a very even-tempered beast with children, but had the most vile hatred of dogs. And was ultra-territorial; nothing that lived came within his field of ownership without his sufferance.
And he had the most bizarre tolerance for domestic beer...
Sounds like a cat or two I've known.
