Fiona's not fond of cameras, so I was surprised to find that I'd managed to capture her true look. She's a sweet, affectionate girl.<br /><br />Thank you. I'm pretty much healed, already. That was one painful fall. I was lucky I didn't break a rib. Next time I have to climb on a chair, I'll take off my socks and keep one hand free!

Well, surprising, anyway. :) They still fight, too, but most of the time it's more play than meanness (the exception: when Fiona is sick and tired of being pounced on . . . or very hungry).Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-17630831010635229092010-10-16T15:46:51.819-05:002010-10-16T15:46:51.819-05:00Awww that is such a cute story about the cats!

Both of them are really expressive and make us laugh a lot.<br /><br />That's very cool that your kitties got along well from the start. I separated mine by putting Isabel in the utility room, but there wasn't enough of a gap for them to reach under the door. Fiona only growled at Isabel twice, though, once we started to let her out, little by little. Spooky growled at Sunshine until close to the end of Shiny's life, so this is a nice change for us. I'm so happy that the kitties are getting along well. <br /><br />I've thought about submitting a story to the Dewey site. I have so many, it might be hard to choose, though!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-13557687554372907672010-10-15T20:34:44.877-05:002010-10-15T20:34:44.877-05:00Ack!

Lovely kitty, she.Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-37924250168030079662010-10-15T20:32:47.611-05:002010-10-15T20:32:47.611-05:00I love your Fiona stories!

Our two kitties made friends rather quickly, by putting their front paws under the door separating them. I can't imagine not having two kitties in the house! <br /><br />I hope you feel better from your bruise. Household projects are the worst!Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-5991942594792816912010-10-15T12:20:33.039-05:002010-10-15T12:20:33.039-05:00Kathy,

I am absolutely thrilled!<br /><br />I haven't got menopause as an excuse, but I do have an inner ear fluid imbalance that, unfortunately, is never completely gone. I should have known better than to climb on a chair with a print in one hand. If I'd put it down, so that both hands weren't full, I might have been able to at least grab support. <br /><br />Alyce,<br /><br />There was the potential for a fight because Fiona was nervous; Isabel loves pouncing and it's when she's really tired or very hungry that Fi is more likely to fight, even when Izzy's offering an olive branch, but fortunately she trusts me and telling her it was okay worked. I do think the fact that Fi was still mostly kitten helped them adapt. That and Isabel is small, so she wasn't intimidated like she was when we tried to adopt a 3-year-old kitty (Desmond -- remember Desmond?).<br /><br />I'm almost back to 100%, thanks. My bruises are fading fast! :)<br /><br />SuziQ,<br /><br />Isn't that a sweet expression? Kiddo was home when I loaded the photos and I had to run to fetch him so he could see that I'd captured the "real Fiona". She is such a gentle girl and I think that shows her well. Kiddo agreed, so you have it from both of us. :)<br /><br />Thanks! I'm ecstatic that my girls are getting along so well! Not that we don't still have our share of wrestle-chase going on, but any tender moments are extremely thrilling.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-68044893174014385932010-10-15T11:12:15.725-05:002010-10-15T11:12:15.725-05:00Awww - so glad the girls are getting along.

I think it's because they were older when they had to adapt to each other.<br /><br />I love the bit about the popsicle.
