What makes T-bone so mean?

We might have know that naming a cat T-bone would turn out poorly, but we did it anyway. He isn't so much of a scratcher or biter, as he makes himself inconvenient. While we're eating dinner, T-bone (and his side kick, Stanley) will steal entire halves of cheese steaks, slices of pizza, bags of pretzels (we've been meaning to work on our diet). After a few times, we decided that during dinner we would lock them in the bathroom. (It's a small apartment and that's the only actual door.)

This is always a challenge. Not only do we have to find them, but they then somehow make themselves "heavier" by pressing themselves close to the floor so we have the worst trouble picking them up. While we eat, they ransack the bathroom and sometimes "relieve" themselves in a way in which you know that it's just for spite!

We should name out next cat AngelBooBooKittyBear or something equally saccharin.
