Warfare In South County

[RedHedd]

I'm sure she's just putting Eddie in his place for even THINKING of looking at another female! Harrumph! Lady Edwina is NOT pleased!

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!!!!

Sounds like it's time for Margaret's "parents" to get a talking to!

I know exactly how this goes because we used to have the same problem with "the nasty orange cat from the condos." Tubby and Peanut used to go at it severely - all at 2:00 in the morning! One time I got so fed up I stormed up to the condo and told the people if they didn't control their cat, I would! I finally had to tape newspapers to the windows so they couldn't see what was going on outside. I think the nasty orange cat was a stray that the people in the condos ended up adopting, because eventually they moved and the nasty orange cat disappeared - whew!

Hope your hand heals quickly and Edwina continues to settle down.

I think Edwina was really stressed out after the event and needed some time to come back. Doesn't sound unfamiliar to me......

We get this reaction too with the Tribe...the night managers (Percy and Norbert) patrol the windows after lights out and if the Orange Tabby from 4 doors down or Phyllis and Neo from next door come by for a visit, they do the "meezer howl" and the "get the heck away from our house" growl. Both sounds can get us flying out of bed in 3 seconds!
Well, everybody gets big bushy tail and go into Orange Alert status - then Pippin ( who can't see who he's running into) runs into someone and a spat ensues.
I usually grab the Feliway and sprtiz around everyone so that we all go back into our happy Zen places and we can get back to bed. But it just takes one cat howling to get everyone on edge.
Hope Eddie can get back in Edwina's good graces...

Oh Sara, sorry to laugh, but all I could think of is that after all of the time that Edwina ignored Eddie - now she is possessive.

I think she hates Margaret's guts........and is upset she is in HER yard and FLIRTING with Eddie.

And poor Eddie is now trying so hard to get back in her good graces.

Edwina really does look angry in her pictures. Look how dark her eyes are!

Dear Eddie, That's a woman for you. You just can't figure them out so don't even try. Here you are protecting the catnip and she goes and has a hissy (literally) fit. We are glad that things have settled down for the most part and hope that peace will reign. Maybe Edwina just wanted to share a sprig of catnip with Margaret, and you were the odd man out. Sorry, Eddie, we have no experience with women and at times like this we are glad.

Purringly yours,
Trevor and Andy
