Why Bob got his nickname "Hamas" A Top Tropicals Garden Blog post.

🐈 Why Bob got his nickname "Hamas"

It's for his urge to dig tunnels everywhere - from laundry to pillows. This terrorist secures his position and starts looking for his next target. Then he attacks other #PeopleCats from his tunnel... without declaring a war!..

Be safe and have a peaceful sleep. Good night.🌜
