That my nephew has a per Norwegian forest cat.

I then looked them up, and I learned some interesting things, that they might have been once kept on Viking ships. I know cats were once commonly kept on ships, mainly to kill rats and mice and also to provide comfort and companionship, but it's kind of funny to think of these big cats with their long poofy fur being on ships full of bloodthirsty Vikings on a raging sea. :lol:

But then again, they are supposed to be stronger and more nimble than other other house cats. Not exactly built for a life of pampering. Not that they mind. :cat:

The term “basket case” originated in WW1, indicating a soldier missing both his arms & legs. :(
