Scamps was the pet cat who adopted the Toady One. Scamps was useful for preventing unhappy thoughts. He was born on February 9th, 2009, and lived with the Adams brothers until June 15th, 2022, when he passed away from widespread lymphoma at the ripe old cat age of 13.

Scamps is not a traditional megabeast. Scamps adopt his victim while he is a kitten. When Scamps hits adulthood, he slashes the victim's throat and drinks its blood, turning Scamps back into a kitten, similar to a Fountain of Youth. Beware its dangerous eyes!

This is an engraving of Scamps and Shoe by 'Toady One' Adams. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. Scamps is striking a menacing pose. Shoe is making a plaintive gesture. The artwork relates to the mortal wounding of Shoe by Scamps in the late Spring of 2009 during the umpteenth attempted siege of Living Room by Shoe. (more)
