Neutrino Fortress!

A man's home may be his castle, but that's because man considers himself vulnerable, mortal, not the center of the universe, and various other problems not shared by cats.


Note the luxuriously bubble-wrapped basement and the faithful (teddy) hound in the courtyard.


So when Neutrino took immediate possession of the new stronghold - a word I didn't even know could be applied to cardboard boxes until that moment - he started projecting an "I'M IN ABSOLUTE COMMAND" vibe so powerful three alien empires suddenly crossed Earth off their "To Conquer" list.


Neutrino is the opposite of impressed (and appears to think his castle is edible)



Lacking claws, medieval defenders had to make do with bows an arrows. Yet another shortcoming unknown to felines.



For anyone, nay, anything else, sticking your face out of the only hole in your defenses might have been a weakness.


Indeed, Castle Neutrino became such an important (and frankly adorable) local landmark he was forced to batten down the hatches and defend himself from giggling paparazzi.



But he weathered the storm - cats are extremely good at enduring adoration and disproportionate amounts of loving attention, those being the closest the brilliantly parasitic geniuses come to any sort of hardship - and went on to be King of All He Surveyed!


He surveys us. But we already know that.
