Christmas Catten, Part 3: Attack Catten
Yesterday, Queenie stopped avoiding Tony and started being hostile to him instead. Tony would sometimes stand and resist, and sometimes beat a hasty (though strategic) retreat.
Today, some sort of thaw has developed. Queenie is still chasing Tony around the house, and there’s still an aggressive component, a “This is me showing you who’s Boss” component, but they are both obviously enjoying themselves, and Tony sometimes seeks Queenie out, to be chased.
And this morning, large-but-timid Orange Cat Malley came into the living room, to sit in the periphery, as he tends to do, and Tony surprised him by running across the coffee table, jumping past him, and landing behind him with sort of a “Ta Da!”, totally cutting off his escape route through the hallway.
Malley retreated “in some confusion,” as they used to say, and didn’t leave the bedroom until nine o’clock that night.
Next exciting Catten entry is here.
