Our senile old thing has an extremely well-developed pulling-books-off-shelves-and-eating-them gland.

We had one (the late & not-enormously-lamented Fat Maggie) who had an almost permanently short-circuited short circuit plug. Plus she used to single out the flatmate who was most terrified of her for particular ‘loving’ attention; he was petrified in case the maniac side slipped out! We lived in an old place with b-i-i-i-g bedrooms & her other trick was hiding under the bed in the morning & waiting until the victim was about half-way twixt bed & door before shooting out at them like a rocket-propelled furry ankle-killing machine.
But we (mostly) loved her anyway 🙂
