But that's small potatoes compared to Dempsey. He's well-known for his battle experience and aggression practically unsurpassed such that every other cat avoids him at all costs. Not to mention he brutally assaults Peter and leaves him for dead because he needed to rest in his territory. | |

Cats Are Mean | |
The Abandoned / int_58e43f17 | comment |
Cats Are Mean: Not all of the cats depicted in this story are necessarily bad, per se, but some fit the bill very much Putzi and Mutzi refuse to tell Peter where Jennie had gone off to after he had mistakenly left her behind to go off with Lulu, even though he is clearly distraught. If that's not enough, they told her to ditch him and later tell him he deserved it right to his face before walking off. But that's small potatoes compared to Dempsey. He's well-known for his battle experience and aggression practically unsurpassed such that every other cat avoids him at all costs. Not to mention he brutally assaults Peter and leaves him for dead because he needed to rest in his territory. | |
