There has been a "truce" in our house. Cats and dog are now equal :) (Well, we'll continue to let Ruby think that, but it is obvious WE CATS are the superior "breed"!)

At first we fought like, well, cats and dogs.

Now we get along quite well. Although I'm not ready to say we are "friends," we tolerate each other. Since I was the oldest and smartest, I was the one who made friends first! I would sneak upstairs at night when Ruby and humans were sleeping. I was able to enjoy my favorite perches, sniff in the dog's bowl, etc. Then when Ruby went for her surgery, I really took the upstairs back as my own. Saffi was not as brave as me. I would stare Ruby right in the eye without fear. We'd stare and stare and stare, then I'd hiss and Ruby would bark and I'd run off. This was repeated a few times until I was able to stand my ground. Ruby sniffed my nose and my hind end and then she pretty much left me alone! Now we ignore each other.

Mom hopes that someday we can actually play and be friends. But for now, not chasing each other will suffice!

Love, Miss Maya
