“Something has changed,” Viola said to us just last week. And we agree. That something is who’s to become the next Patrol Sergeant since our current PS is Sunny who is aging and now, quite frankly, would rather sleep and eat her wet food with a side of turkey in gravy baby food. Shenanigans don’t bother her anymore and we’ve had lots of shenanigans here lately.

Tessa, who was grounded to the master bedroom a few weeks back because she was picking on the baby Viola and peed on Viola’s ham-mick, is free and Viola has been staying in the bedroom ever since because a certain house panther has picked up on the picking on the baby game.

Somehow, long-legged and speedy-fast Olivia has decided certain cats are chase toys. That is, when the game isn’t to guard the stairs and the hall leading to the Cat Den where the litter boxes reside, thus keeping Viola from using the correct facilities. Or the food bowls, or the water fountain.

I am the darkness! I am but a shadow in the night hunting all intruders!

Yes, yes, yes, and if you keep this up, you are in trouble. Big trouble. Got it, Olivia?

See what I mean?

Living in a home with multiple cats with multiple personalities, the hierarchy is always changing. Alpha cat, beta cats, omega cat. Looks like it may be time to invest in calming collars.

    It is like a soap opera at your house!

  2. Wow, that all gets complicated. and it’s sure no fun to be the one who gets picked on.

  3. Rene S says:

    Yeah, we so know what you mean. Daily screeching (Lucy and Sadie) and Feliway are staples at our house. . .

  4. da tabbies o trout towne says:

  5. Margie says:

    Sounds like our house hold. Always something going on, that is for sure. Have a great day.

  6. Madi and Mom says:

    Dear me for sure there is constant change with multiple kit kats in residence.
    Luckily I’m the only one here and my peeps readily accept that I am the matriarch, of course at 16 in cat years I’m for sure the senior of we 3 seniors too
    Hugs madi your bfff

  7. Olivia, you are being a stinker! That’s no way of earning the Patrol Sergeant job!

  8. Ellen Pilch says:

    Calming collars are great ( as you know, I have a multi cat home), they do work. Chewy has the best prices on a 3 pack.

  9. uh oh…..sounds like someone needs to recheck their status in the crowd

  10. Different cats, different personalities, and new problems arising. It just takes one to upset the family “dynamics”!

  11. Ours do that. Things shift and change and settle for a while. Some of it is seasonal, too much cold everyone is in. Too wet everyone is in (or out in the rain!)

  12. Summer says:

    Poor Viola. Yes, it’s sometimes hard to keep the peace with a clowder.

  13. Yep, you never know who’s gonna be the troublemaker in a multi-cat family.

  14. Brian Frum says:

    Oh yea, we can relate to that gang!

  15. Hope the collars work! Poor Viola!

  16. Raven says:

    Sorry you’re having to take such an active role in managing their relationships. Hopefully things will settle down soon.

  17. We can relate! Me and Crockett used to squabble wif Angie a lot.

  18. Cathy Keisha says:

    Viola, I’m gonna have to give you lessons in self defense. How dare they pick on you?

  19. Wanna borrow Dakota? MOL MOL BOL BOL!!

  20. Just in time for the elections, you must select a new PS too.

  21. Poor Viola, that isn’t fair that they are both picking on you. You have to learn to retaliate, but I guess that is easier said than done.

  22. Poor Viola. Sisters can be so … catty! And how could they be mean to that adorable face?
