Maxx: The World's Most Patient Cat

So this morning Thomas is playing in the living room, and decides to spontaneously climb on top of the futon next to Maxx. Most of the time he and the cats ignore each, but today he wanted to play. So Tom buries his face in Maxx's side and starts to giggle, then starts "petting" the cat by repeatedly slapping him on the belly. Maxx, bless him, just sits there and takes it, purring loudly even when Thomas starts grabbing his fur and yanking.

Maxx is truely a zen master.
