I couldn't believe my eyes

Default I couldn't believe my eyes

I was watching tv with my feet up on a stool, and Nikki came up and
snuggled down between my ankles, like she often does. Here's a picture
of her doing this:

Mere had a little snack at her plate nearby. Then she came and looked up
at me. Then she jumped onto the stool and snuggled down between my ankle
and Nikki! She gave Nikki a few licks and then settled down to sleep.
Nikki slept through it all, at least she looked like she was sleeping.
Maybe she was pretending because she didn't know what to do? ;o) I just
sat with my mouth wide open and watched them sleep, snuggled up together
for about half an hour.

Then I spoiled it all. I carefully removed my feet from the stool and
stood up to go get the camera. I got it, came back and sat down, but
then Nikki woke up, glared at Mere, and jumped off the stool. Stoopid
hoomin.

Earlier today it looked like the girls were playing - at least they were
having the zoomies at the same time. I'm not sure that they were chasing
each other or if they were just accidentally running around at the same
time, but at least there was no hissing or growling. I wonder what
happened? There has obviously been some sort of breakthrough.

Aww, what a nice footwarmer!

Oh my!

Maybe the ice got broken sometime when you weren't looking.

It's wonderful.

First, nice shot. Second... Of COURSE they don't want you to know they're
becoming freinds!!! That would mean they are capitulating to your wishes...
Rather than the other way around...;-)

The lulling you into a false sense of security is going well, I see ;-)

Even if Mere and Nikki are not destined for an adoring sisterhood, I'd take
this advance as a sign that Nikki has at least accepted Mere, and Mere was
trying to show Nikki that two cats cuddled up together with their hoomin is
a nice way to spend a spring afternoon. =o) Hooray! You know now that
whatever set backs may happen, it is possible for Mere and Nikki to cohabit
your home without killing one another, or sounding as if they wanted to.

As I write this, I am witnessing a major case of Mother/Daughter Zoomies
between Nina and Francesca, and the shredded TP is flying all over. Don't
know if I dare give them the Catnip I bought while doing errands, today. =o)

It sounds like things are progressing splendidly. :-)
