Mortal Enemies

I am letting a friend of mine and his cat stay for a few days while his apartment is repainted. His cat is a seven year old female, fairly calm but my 5 month old kitten has tested her patience quite a few times.

Just prior to this picture there was a 30 minute chase and hide, mostly instigated by my hellion. She had taken refuge under the sofa where the older cat won't fit and would do sneak attacks.

Then after all the spitting and meowing it was nap time.

  • The older cat is a 'Bengal' a breed I had never heard of. My kitten is a 'rescue', heritage unknown. But they do look a lot alike.

    I had thought that the fights would be over food or space. They take turns eating, no fights, it's just when the older cat gets fed up with mine pestering her that war is declared.
  • Cute picture! Are they a specific breed; or is it just coincidence that they look similar?
  • I'll bet they will miss each other.
    They will have to have visitation rights in the future. ;)
