We have four – and the dog. The dog thinks she’s a top cat, the top cat thinks he’s a dog. The two females detest each other so much, one gets shut in the library from 5pm to 9am and the other is locked in the bedroom between 9am and 5pm. The fourth cat is a fluffy boy who ‘marches to the beat of his own drum’ and leaves tumbleweed hairy evidence of his passage around the house.
We’re lucky with our girls, they get along most of the time.
We used to raise malemute/siberian huskies, & sometimes wish we’d get another one.
Pets make better people than most people!
