I worry for the cats of war

I'm staring at the orphan refugee Cat Who Doesn't Live Here who you could say is thriving (tyrannical, muscular, sizeable*), and immensely loved by rebel factions**, but who lives entirely off instinct and never knew his mother or kitlings. No civilising influences for *him*, and he does pay a price for this. God knows it's no time for a cheap metaphor so I won't. But it's not an easy life.

** Obvs me, but absolutely not just me
