So far, things keep getting easier with Gabe. We did have one confrontation on the steps to the outside door when he would not move to go back in to the first hallway. I could see what behavior was not fun for Robyn. Tthere was a broom nearby and I scooted him in with that, but I just know he would have nipped me if I had touched him. He does have a temper. I can see why Robyn worried about her baby with Gabe. I don't have any babies around, so the issue just isn't that big.
The only odd thing that has happened, and it could just be coincidence, but Gabe and Miley are getting along, although just this morning, I noticed a "hot spot" on her side, where she was licking the fur OFF. I didn't call the Vet because I wanted to see if it was going to continue or get worse. I can't decide if 1.) she has had a nervous breakdown and is consuming herself 2.) has fleas or an alergic reaction to flea dirt 3.) has something else going on with her fur 4.) has a bite....yikes.... I xcan't see any flea dirt and they don't go outside, but cats can still get fleas this time of year. I put Frontline on all three cats, just incase it is fleas. Gabe didn't mind the application, but Graemer and Miley are still trying to figure out how to reach between their shoulder blades with the tongues. Ewwwwww.
Anyway, I surely hope Miley is not going to pieces over the additional cat being here. I will and have been, trying to spend more time with her. I had been yelling at her for hissing at Gabe....maybe that was what took her over the edge, and created a stress related licking session. I will keep a close eye on her for awhile.
So I think everything is fine with Gabe.....now to tend to Miley girl!
