Simba, my beloved foster cat, went crazy on me tonight.

As you probably know, the fosters live on my 3rd floor and my own cats on the 1st/2nd floors. I allow the fosters limited access to the 2nd floor twice a day. (access to the bedroom, not to my own cats)

Lately I have been allowing Simba short stays downstairs with my cats. Always in the late afternoon. Tonight I allowed him to come out for the first time in the later evening. He actually ATTACKED several of my cats.

I believe the reason is that in the afternoon, it is nap time. All is calm. but the evening begins the awide awake time for cats. He does tend to be a dominant cat but I NEVER expected this behavior. I am very sad and feel very sorry that the others had to endure his attacks. And I was so hoping that one day he could remain downstairs at night to sleep with me.

Heavy SIGH. Forever a foster but I will continue to love him even if he needs to stay with his foster buddies for the majority of the day. DRAT.
