Abby and Smoke are wonderful cats, but they aren’t really great friends. At best, they disdainfully tolerate each other. Most often, one is in the house and the other out – then they exchange places. One or both of them regularly take over the huge dog beds -at opposite ends – daring the doggies to get even close.
I was really surprised today to see them actually sharing the same small cat bed in the dining area! I think the biggest thing was that the bed was lying in a shaft of sunlight and it was warm.
It’s a bit of a struggle in this household to keep everyone’s noses in joint. The cats are jealous of each other, plus the dogs, and vice versa. We spent a LOT of time making sure that everyone eats at the same time, has plenty of water, go in an out pretty much at will, plus get at least her share of love from each of us on a daily basis.
It was really nice – and much appreciated – to see detente in the dining area.
