Even though I give my pets human names and refer to my two female felines as 'the girls', I try not to anthropomorphize them in our relationship. They're still two cats and a dog, who have fur coats and don't shit in the toilet. Still, if Cindy and Jill were human girls, I can pretty much imagine how it'd go down.
They'd both be cute, and both would have guys lined up to talk to them. Cindy would have the edge there, though, with her finer features. More guys would want to get next to her, and Jill would get pissed off from all of them wanting to talk to her about Cindy. I can just see it. She'd probably be the first of the two to get pregnant- Cindy the cat was the first to go into heat.
And Cindy and Jill the two cats do share some other 'human' traits already. There's a bit of jealousy as far as my attention, so this is something I have to watch with them. So far so good with me and them.
It's been almost a year and we' re still hanging tough. A bit of discord between the two just this weekend, but it seems to be smoothing out. Cindy just got fixed, just this past Thursday, and in getting her home, her new 'scent' didn't hit home with her sister. Lots of hissing and some territorial bullying(the only time I intervened), all of which has disappeared in two days' time. They're not back to being buddies, but it's at least a peaceful co-existence once again.
I've been told by a reliable source that it's a good idea to get Jill fixed as soon as possible, so this is around the corner. Once again, one cat missing for the day, to return to what I hope is this time a more hospitable reception from the other cat. But I understand why it needs to be done. Has to do with their hoarmones and such. So more possible domestic quadraped upheaval.
It'll be nice to get everyone back to normal. That's the nice thing about having pets is that when everything's cool, you get a nice routine going between you and them. A groove. But, one more bump in the road first. One more cat to fix. And then hopefully the pavement will be smooth again. At least for awhile.
