You can take him outside. You can ask him to leave. But he'll just come back. Stronger. Angrier. Fluffier.
Since last year, a mysterious cat has been surprising shoppers in England, regularly appearing on one grocery store's shelves despite repeated removal attempts by staff.

(22,845 posts)"Now old Mr. Johnson had troubles of his own
He had an old yellow cat that wouldn't leave home
Tried everything he knew to do to keep the cat away
Took him up to Canada and told him for to stay. .
But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away."

"They sneaked into the shop with the butcher not around
And they dropped him in the hopper where the meat was ground
The old cat disappeared with a blood-curdling shriek
And that shop's hamburger tasted furry for a week. .
But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away."
