I always have assumed that he'll hang on until his twenties - sleeping, but
still managing to look ornery, on the bed!

He's annoyed Fred *yet* again by his latest claiming of the cat scratchers.
Otis is very territorial about scratchers leaving Chester with only one
outlet - our beautiful mattress. This is slowly driving Fred over the edge.
He went out and bought two *more* scratchers and placed them strategically
around the bed. Otis found them and fell in love with them. Rolled on
them, scratched them, laid on them - the whole bit. Chester came in and
made a bee-line for the cardboard scratcher and Otis went ballistic and
drove him from the room. Little sh&t!

Chester used the cardboard one this morning though so maybe Otis won't hog
it forever. I guess he can't be at more than one place at any given time so
maybe he won't be able to totally enforce it. Poor cat is going to be
beside himself ;-)

Maybe there should be more than one scratcher in each room of the
house. Purrs for Chester to get some scratching and Otis to calm down.

Hoppy Purrday Otis! No plans of becoming a distinguished elderly gentleman
yet, then?


I don't hold out hope for the distinguished elderly gentleman role for him -
I suspect that he'll be the grumpy old man as he ages. Chester, however
....


I always thought Otis was mellowing as he aged.
