The Pinnacle of Audacity

The Pinnacle of Audacity
Puss thinks she is "king of the hill" when she can take over Cody's prize possession.
I thought fur would fly but Cody backed off .........................


~

Second Choice

 And went to her other bed in the crate. Is that called sibling sympathy or sharing or what?

      Before Puss came on the scene, Cody hated cats but they have adjusted very well.

      It is kinda sweet the way they get along now, as Cody hated cats before she came to live with us.

      And Puss is so wee and old. I guess "old" must give her the attitude... I won't stand for that s--- anymore.

      Funny you should ask. It's all mine but she has designs on it. I keep my BR door closed. No critters allowed on MY bed. They aren't even allowed in my room. They have their own beds and if that doesn't please them, tough cookies.

      Those little cats are fearless. But Cody gets her long walk every day and I hope that makes her feel special. Sometimes I get introspective about Cody and wonder if she is truly happy with me. Is it enough to ride in the back of the car whenever I go and to go for her walks? But she seems happy and as soon as I finish this, we are off for our walk, in spite of the ba-zillion things I have to do. Hahaha

    I recognize this behavior. Shelby was like this... hahaha. Even though she was the smallest of our dogs, you would often find her in the LARGEST bed. We have a dog that is 55 pounds and ONE really large dog bed. Who would be in it? Shelby. The smallest dog. If she wanted that bed and another dog was in it, she was smart enough to bark at something that WASN'T EVEN THERE to rally the other dog out of the bed to see about the ruckus, and then she would slip into the bed. She was *something else.*

    Your cat is displaying all the signs of being Princess of the Palace.

      That is soooo funny. To create a situation to lure the other dogs away. Little smarty.
      Cody hated cats before this one came in the house but Little Puss would just stand still and put her little paw out. She the old one that I took from the shelter because I didn't think anyone would adopt her. She was so malnutritioned, I thought she was a short hair cat but with all the supplements, her hair is long, really long and soft.All she needs is her crown.

      I bought Puss beds galore. I kept thinking she wanted something different so I'd buy another bed. Then one of those big things they can climb on or sleep on.Nope. She likes to go upstairs and sleep on an old cot up there. And then she sneaks on Cody''s bed when ever she can. I wonder if she and Mollie would get along.

      Yes, Cody has a generous nature. I never thought she would ever accept a cat ..... Not that it makes any difference but Cody is female. I had at first named her Dakota and it somehow got shortened to Cody. Do your animals ever go through a mess of names before one seems to stick?

    I'm not surprised at all that Cody likes her crate. it is her own little world, and she can be in control of it, and that feels wonderful.

    About the sibling sympathy thing; I don't think it's that at all. I think Cody has been intimidated by the cat. Cats do that, event to Bears, sometimes. Although it takes a much larger cat than yours to attract a Bear's attention. Except as a snack.

    Blessings and Bear hugs!

      I guess dogs in the wild sleep /live in holes in the ground, so they like the small quarters.
      Cody sleeps on her big round bed until I go to bed, then she goes into her crate all by herself.
      Hahaha Be ware of the bigger cats. They climb trees just like bears.

    Puss really does look like a Prince (or Princess) on his (or her) pillow, and how sweet of Cody to let Puss get on with it and retreat to the sanctity of her crate. This post made me smile today, and that's always a good thing, isn't it?!

      They are both girls. Only Cody sounds like a boy because most Codys are boys. Confusing. I first named her Dakota and somehow it just got shortened to Cody. It seemed like 2 syllables were easier to say than 3. Ha

    This made me laugh out loud!
    Isn't it funny how often the smaller ones can manage to get one over on the bigger ones?
    Your dog actually looks like it just wants peace and quiet and knows that the key to that is just leaving that kitty alone!

    Dear Manzanita, for me, it looks like sharing. Cody seems to know that Puss needs to be "King of the hill" today.....or maybe Cody just doesn't want fur to fly! Peace.
