Shamrock and Rhett were going through there normal chasing session. The

intimidate him, all the while Shamrock hisses and swats at him.

Sammy doesn't like this activity at all. He'll start out with a long
"warning" meow at the both of them. Then he goes to the edge of the bed
closest to where Rhett is on the TV and he repeats the long meow. Rhett
I guess gets the message and slowly gets off of the TV and slowly moves
to the floor, all the while Sammy watching him. Rhett will then lay on
the floor next to the bed and all is then calm.

Sammy really has decided he's the king of the castle and so far no one
is arguing with it.

That's brilliant! Sammy is obviously a very intelligent cat as well as the
king of the castle. Oh... wouldn't it be good if he could be politician? I
can think of a good few that could take lessons from him.

It's funny how cats work that out. I'm not sure who's top cat in my
house. Nipsy nominally is because he's bigger than the others, but
Marlo throws around her weight sometimes. She's small but pretty fat.
Scooter just seems to take it all in - most serious fights are between
Marlo and Nipsy.
