"Not too shabby.

We have had some swats and hisses and a lot of growling."

Smokey knows ALL about the *swats*, "*HiSSSSin", and "Grrrin"!

Took better than 6 months for Boots, da Kat, to "accept" SmokeMutt...
Poor pooch would lay under my feet and Boots would jump into my
lap or the arm of the Kliner chair and *look* down at Smokey till he
"felt" the burning *stare* and looked up - then Boots would start
with the "HisSSS", followed by the low, rumbling "Grrrr..." -
Smokey would give a deep , get up, and move across the room.


"Kylie is very clingy to me when Kloe is in the bathroom."

Prolly *worried* SHE'll get *locked up*, too!


"She isn't much of a cat to pick up and hold.
She only wants on my lap if it is on her terms."

Boots has One "Requirement" for "affection" =
"Ya got *FOOD*, Dad??"

Sit in the Kliner chair with:
. Ice creme
. Cheese
. Mac, Cheese & Tuna...
And I can be ASSURED of an "attentive & affectionate" KAT
sitting on the arm of the chair - *batting* away at each byte!
