It's fun and interesting to watch but it is only going to take one chomp at the wrong time and Muggsy is going to be a meal. They are a lightening fast, highly evolved, successful hunting machines and eventually Muggsy will get complacent or slow down from age.

I found this by accident and wondered if the cat was still living and from the date on this Facebook page it appears he is.

Cajun Pride Swamp Tours You see, Mugsy followed Chris EVERYWHERE for many, many years. Anything Chris was eating, he would feed some to Mugsy. So, Mugsy is quite loyal to Chris. To this day, if Chris visits the swamp and calls for Mugsy, Mugsy will come running out of his hiding place. Well, Chris also did tours and knows the alligators and how to call them. Mugsy, being alpha, does not like the alligators because it's competition I guess. He will go by the water or on the boat and search out the alligators, even when we are closed. He will spit and hiss at the alligators. He has a mind of his own and if chased away, he will return if he wants to. The alligators do not like him either. I am told that they don't like the way cats smell at all! However, they do like the way dogs smell! OMG 25 January 2012 at 15:16
