C'mon cats, don't be stupid 2008-05-03 05:18:00 Fighting cats can be very stressful. Especially when you are not used to it. For 2 weeks Chica and Pumuckl are fighting now. First Pumuckl fought against her, because she was at the vet for her blood sample. Now Chica is fighting against him, because he had his surgery just 6 days ago.I rarely see them together at the moment. One is sleeping in the bedroom, the other one in the living room. They are having their meals together, but that's it. 2 days ago I thought it is done as they were cleaning each other and sleeping together, yes, even playing a bit. Well, I was wrong. As soon as Chica woke up she continued hissing.It's very hard in the evenings. We use to play Catch-The-Ribbon together. This is not possible at the moment. Either I play with Chica or with Pumuckl. More than once Chica l
