Let's see...

I'm not sure if this is a result of him being hit by a car and having some form of brain injury, but he's super dominant/aggressive (met him after the accident so not sure how he was before). He's the possessive type, so when the dog was around, the dog was his. He bullied that 90lb dog like a poor schoolyard kid. I often said to Morley that if I ever came home to find him dead, I wouldn't blame Chevy at all. He was on human-grade OCD medication for about 4 years to "calm" him down because his bullying of the dog and cat was so bad.

He torments the other cat mercilessly. He's caught her once and peeled the skin back from her leg; she needed surgery to fix it up.

He used to be 21lbs and didn't groom well and his fur would get matted (he's now slimmer). But he HATES being brushed, so I'd have to take him to the spca and put a muzzle on him. Someone else would hold him down wearing heavy duty leather gloves - the sounds that came out of him made me feel like I was torturing him.

BUT, he's got a personality and a half. He runs up to people like he's a dog. He'll flop down and show his belly, and he's very tolerant and gentle when a small child is petting him.

He used to come out for a walk with me and the dog. He'd wait for us by the alley door and "lead" us back home.

He's quite clever. In the morning when he's hungry, he'd go to the dog and sniff his ear. The dog hated this, which made him get up to get away from him. The dog would then come to me and wake me up, which meant I would be getting up and feeding everyone.

When Chevy died, Morley was out of sorts for a long time; I guess in his bullying way he was quite attached to him.

Morley now possess me and sleeps on top of me, all 16lbs of his cranky butt glory. And I love him to pieces
