Let me introduce my devoted bodyguard named Barsik. He's turning 14 this August - pretty old but never out of energy! What he likes doing is following me everywhere in the flat, and keep grumbling how bad I am, going around every now and then, and thus making him follow me with no minute of rest (which makes him tired, of course). In spite of this, we get along well enough. He adores olives and fresh beef, never eats pork. When I was at school and had to make home tasks, he liked sitting close to my books on a desk while I was reading or writing something. I suspect he learnt a lot from there though he still pretends he cannot read and doesn't understand human speech at all. Apparently, he's got some skills indeed, otherwise he wouldn't be able to read the word WHISKAS on packs of this food (oh yeah, he always recognizes a pack with it!).
Here are some pictures with him:
And here's a picture showing how well he guards me even when I'm trying to take some rest. Beware of his fangs!
