The Truth About Cats & Dogs

Weasley has integrated himself into the house very well. As far as I can tell he's a pretty normal naughty kitten who climbs curtains and has no fear. He also seems to really like the dogs.

Halo likes him enough to cuddle but we'd just gotten back from the park so perhaps she was trying to get warm again.















Raimi is so big he doesn't necessarily take notice of Weasley til he's running around like a maniac - then when The Boy is sleeping Weasley sneaks up and gets cosy. Can you see him????









I think he knows how big they are because he makes sure that he's in a relatively safe place when he wants to sleep with them. The dogs are usually pretty careful too.





I think he feels safe when he's with the dogs, wouldn't you if you were sitting next a leg this size? Of course you want to make sure it's a friendly leg before making yourself comfortable. When Halo lay down she made sure not to lie on him and he didn't move at all, would that she was this careful with her babies.











Raimi stretched out on the couch and Weasley decided that his giant foot would be something good to cuddle. It's almost like he's looking up Raimi's nose - maybe he's looking for a brain?

The other cats didn't enter the house til they were each almost a year old so they don't have the same relationship with the dogs. Ceilidh really liked Petal but it think it was because she was small!


See that smug little smile of Weasley's? That's because 2 weeks ago Mallaig was terrified of Weasley to the point of hysteria. Of course Weasley knew all along that she would not be able to resist that charm.

I can't believe how closely matched in color your animals are...: ) And how well they all get along. Too funny. We've been enjoying reading your other entries about your walks in the park, Halo's disgust for rain, etc. Max walks close to something like Halo does in rain when he's in trouble...like today when he and the 10-year-old alpha cat got into a scrap because Max was sticking his nose where it shouldn't have been.
