Best buddies? We're working on it!

So Mandy still hasn't truly warmed up to Bean yet. We've got some hissing and growling going on, but Bean hasn't given up on making Mandy her friend and if last night was any indication, Mandy might be starting to be a bit more tolerant. Check it out:

And soon there will be peace and harmony in the land! :-)

Date: 2012-10-03 12:24 pm (UTC)Our neighbors have three cats, one is a couple of years older than the other two. They got the second one a year before they moved here and they really like each other, sleep together etc. A year ago they got the third cat and, well, there's a reason everyone calls her "the little devil." The oldest cat now only eats at home, then goes outside again and the second cat sometimes isn't home for days. The oldest cat spends most of her time at our house/garden. We obviously can't kick her out of our backyard if she wants to sleep under the hedge, but it's kinda hard to kick her out of the house as well sometimes. If the weather is really bad she sleeps in our house most of the time :/
In comparison to the that, your cats are already best friends.

Oh my gosh, yes! Wow, that’s a really bad situation your neighbor has. I guess animals are like people - they’ve got their own personalities and not everyone is going to get along, just as we don’t like everyone we meet.

Date: 2012-10-03 02:21 pm (UTC)I'm such a sucker for our little feline friends and these two are just gorgeous.
They look pretty chilled here, I hope it is a sigh that they'll be OK.
I have to say though that my own fur babies do not get on, but they do tolerate each other, well until Sam gets it into his head to chase Rosie.
Watching a three legged, toe-rag of a cat get his ass handed to him by his pissed of companion is truly one of life's great pleasures, and I say that with love;)

Me, too. I know a lot of it has to do with Mandy feeling jealous so we’re doing our best to let her know that she’s still Queen of the house and we love her just as much as we always did.

Mandy and Chloe were kind of like that. Lived together for 12 years but were never truly “friends” and every so often we’d have to break up a little spat between them.

LOL! How boring would our lives be without our furry friends? :-)
