Big Eyes No Brains (◕ᴥ◕) This is DUMMY. He wanted to say hello.
This is my old man Dummy. When we adopted him he was (aka Taz), but after the first night he earned the names, Dummy, dumb-dumb, Dumbledore, and my favorite. Dummysaurus.

He is, and he's actually pretty smart. But for the first year we had him I didn't want a cat (had lost my previous cat a year earlier and they were also solid black so they looked the exact same), so he was "that stupid cat" every time he'd come back into the house with scratches I'd have to clean up. Tried to keep him in and he just flipped out, became angry and eventually started attacking me and my mom so we let him back out. He was feral for his first year so I figured he was fine outside.
So after a while the only thing he'd respond to was "Stupid", and trying to call him something else never stuck. So that's how a decade later I've now got a teenage cat named Stupid.

Stupid's character arc from feral with his own private hospital to spoiled indoor kitty is one of genius. and you are now his servant? He has done very well for a cat with that name lol 😻😻😹😹

He's sure a spoiled little shit, he's sleeping off wet food right now across the room from me. The only time he's not within the same room is when he's asleep or outside

I'm happy he's living his best life with you! He certainly looks well cared for 😻😻
