Poor Diamond18! I have been through three cats myself, and now have three more. One of wich I saved from the brink of starvation, but that's another story.

As for early childhood incidents, I don't know about any cats, but I do know that he was stung by a tarantula when he was little. Which beame an inspiration for Ungoliantë and Shelob. (not that I blame him, spiders creep me out)

There was an old thread about pets LOTR characters would have. Cats and Hobbits would get along well together I think. They are both slightly on the lazy side, have furry feet, [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] enjoy sleeping, (it's nice to have a bedful of them on a chilly niight) and both cats and Hobbits LOVE to eat!
