Pliny is the one that’s supposed to travel, and then send you letters which range from “I saw a mountain just explode, yo” to “did you know aqueducts are like freakishly expensive” depending on whether he’s the older or the younger one.

Also, I think the younger advocated for rubbing feces into wounds to help them heal. I’m not sure I’d trust Pliny’s knowledge on many subjects.

He’s the homebody of the two. Taco Bob, on the other hand, loves to travel. The downside is that sometimes he doesn’t come back for weeks, so they’re both homebodies now.

Taco bob is very handsome and I imagine very aware of it.

Oh he sure does!

The perspective on this one keeps throwing me off. That cat feels like a tiger in this photo.

Ngl the juxtaposition between “Pliny” and “Taco Bob” has me in stitches.

You are a pro cat namer.

Haha, thanks internet friend!

Peppered with tons of bad medical advice.
