We’re letting the kitten roam free in the house for a few hours during the day. His favorite pastime is sneaking up on Cat’s tail and running away, knowing Cat’s not going to chase him far (lazy old man). Cat’s favorite thing is to sit between Bo and a room he wants to go into, and block his path, hissing at Bo if he comes within 3 feet of the doorway. It’s like a teenager and his younger brother, torturing each other for fun.
Updates:
Bo: We think he has an upper respiratory infection. His eyes have this nasty green mush in them, and he is sneezing more frequently. He’s going to the vet tomorrow.
Cat: Hissed and growled at Bo all day except when Bo looked really sick. Then he let the kitten sit next to him in peace rather than scaring him off. Kind of cute.
Tom: Worked at the dining room table all day. When he is finished with scrap paper, he crumples it up and tosses it across the room. Bo fetches it.
Me: Worried Cat’s going to get sick now… cried when Bo looked really sick… decided one day I’ll be a very high-strung mom.
I think Cat is warming up to the kitten. When Bo was sleeping it off earlier, Cat waited outside of his door for him to wake up (so he could hiss at him). I don’t think Bo has ever NOT liked Cat. He chirps the most when he’s near him.
