Beneath the cover of darkness

Can't wait to see what happens when the dog wants to get in there and Ebby is already in there..

That's a worry actually. She doesn't like Bob and has been known to swat at now and then, but not made contact to my knowledge, she mostly just moves away when he comes to close. Bob isn't at all frightened of her just keeps his distance when I request it. My fear is that Ebby being in the crate and having nowhere to run the only option for her is to fight and I know Bob will retaliate.

Ebby, aren't you cute sneaking into Bob's bed when he's not looking.
So where was Bob at the time?
Was he trying to sleep in Ebby's bed or maybe your bed instead?

LOL! Caught in the act, eh?

LOL Ebby sure is a sneaky kitty. That would be funny if you also got a picture of Bob sleeping in one of Ebby's beds.

Well, Bob, being the gentleman that he is - probably just turned around and found another place to sleep rather than disturbing Her Highness!

Those alien evil eyes will do it every time!!

So where was Bob at the time?

A few feet away on the rug.

Beside being a safe haven for Ebby my bedroom really is too small for Bob to be in, in fact I have a pet gate up in the doorway. (He has never slept on my bed, just will not get up on there.) There is just enough room for my bed with a set of drawers fitting snugly on each side, a wardrobe, and an old wicker blanket chest against the wall at the end of the bed. Ebby's commode, smallish scratch pole and a cat tree type thing is stationed under the window and in front of one of the wardrobe doors, her food & water dish being on a small table next to the wicker basket.

The bedroom leads on to the living room and I never fully close the door but rely on the pet gate. It has a cat flap in it which Ebby will not use, she can jump out but can't get back in so I have had to tape it open in case she gets stuck on the wrong side with Bob at her heels.

At bedtime Bob will start out in his crate then wander over to look through and see if I've got in bed yet, if I haven't he gets a goodnight pet. He will then either lie down in front of the door or go back to his crate, rotating through the night as he feels like.

Ebby will either be in the bedroom with me, (but never on my bed) sleeping on the wicker chest, the cat tree thingy, her bed just by the door or will spend some of the night somewhere in the living room. On the bigger cat tree, behind the sofa, on the sofa, or behind the other l/room door. She also likes to spend some time during the night/early morning behind the blinds looking at what is going on outside.

oh that cracked me up so bad laughing because ebby really did look upset at you at breakfast time for giving away her secret
