Just because humans aren’t allowed to make rules here, it doesn’t mean we have no feline scafflaws! We do — a very big one, in fact! She does not pay any attention to any rules I make, at all! You probably even know who it is:
Yes, she did destroy that chair seat, but that has nothing to do with rule breaking. That was human error for recovering these chairs with such a nice, nubby, scratch-able material. If you look closely, you may notice the original seat fabric, which was nowhere near as shred-worthy.
But enough about stupid human tricks. Binga is just mean-tempered and she takes it out on whoever is nearest to her. Check out this video — this is almost a daily occurrence here, come mealtime.
And she also does the old switcheroo, where she pretends to be nice, only to turn around and bite. Boodie is usually the victim. Who could ever forget this video?
So to Binga — and to all the other bad cats out there, I dedicate this song from heavy rockers Motörhead.* It’s called (logically) “I’m So Bad, Baby I Don’t Care.”
I make love to mountain lions,
Sleep on red-hot branding irons,
When I walk the roadway shakes,
Bed’s a mess of rattlesnakes,
Voodoo child, black cat bone,
Scratch your back, hear you moan,
Get me up, you go down, tall building, single bound,
War and peace, peace and love, say it if you dare,
Iron fist, velvet glove,
I’m so bad, baby I don’t care,
Black-hearted to the bone,
Older than The Rolling Stones,
Been to heaven, been to hell,
Bought the farm, and I won’t sell,
Give and take, rise and fall, rise up and take it all,
Secret love, I won’t tell, knock you up and ring your bell,
Kiss the whip, eat the gun,
Tell me it ain’t fair, midnight victim, hit and run,
I’m so bad, baby I don’t care,
I make the blind to see,
Shoot ’em full of R and B,
I make the lame to walk,
Come ’round and pop your cork,
Wham, bam, thank you ma’am,
I thought I heard the back door slam,
Overkill, walk the line, kill the lights, it’s lampshade time,
On the road, on the lam, people running scared,
I’m everything they say I am, I’m so bad, baby I don’t care.
the autobiography of the singer, Lemmy Kilmister. Not that that has anything to do with this post.
Ichiro pays no attention to my rules. I think that is just wrong!
That’s what we call “licking for a clean place to bite”. Oh, that is a bad kitty. And she doesn’t give a hoot, does she?? The poor chair!!
I am a two year old mixed long haired British cat, my mummy buys scratch able materials for the sofa and settees ..weeehh fun times for me!
I admire the job you have done on that chair ! compliments ! It’s almost so well done as Pookie’s work on Mr. G’s leather chair, which became her chair now, because it looks awful to human eyes !
Rosie is such a bitch too. She is friendly gives kisses and washes everybody and then suddenly she starts to bite ! I wonder if this is a sign of love which not everybody understands ?
That is some naughty behavior! I’m not sure I should root for you hurtin my pals though, but great job on the chair Binga!
Binga, you’re giving us Torties a bad rap! Okay, so I do scratch up a chair seat too but that’s the only bad thing I do. Seriously. I am very, very mellow and never get mad, never bite, never hiss, never fight, never do anything. I am a diva though – that’s my Tortitude!

Maybe Binga is just misunderstood. Ask her. I bet that’s exactly what she’d say.
Binga is a handfull!!..Guess you and Boodie are always looking over your shoulder, Sparkle!!…Happy Friday, beautiful girls…xoxo…Calle, Halle, Sukki
Some cats, like some goats are just meanies behind nice furs
Sparkle, we are sending Maui over to “play” with Binga. Not only does Maui not recognise ANY rules, Feline or otherwise, he’s insane.
It looks like Binga just makes up the rules as she goes along!
Binga seems a bit passive/aggressive, eh?
Tasha says the chair job is awesome, Binga! Well done! She also says she’d bite any cat who had the nerve to rub up against her. The boys think Sparkle is very brave for rubbing up against a tortie!
P.S. We all think Binga is being pretty nice (for a tortie, that is!) in that last video. She’s even giving a bath! But it’s obvious that Boodie just tastes irresistibly delicious!!
Binga has quite an attitude…maybe you and Boodie need to have a talk with her.
Sniffie and the Florida Furkids
Binga is such a freshy!!! It’s the Tortie in her! We know it, cuz we has Cricket, and she a fresh little monster too! The videos were great and Motorhead? SWEEET! Mom likes them.
Sparkle that wasn’t nice at all of Binga. It was down right mean. We are coming right over there with the troups to give Binga a little of her own medicine. Take care Sparkle and stay away from Binga.
Maybe you guys should gang up on Binga and put her in her place!!
Poor Sparkle! You were just giving Binga a friendly headbutt, and she acted mean!
She is tough, but BOOTIFUL.
Wow. Binga is really tough.
