Andy sees something he hadn’t noticed about Dougy’s ottoman.
Curious…there on the corner of Dougy’s ottoman…what is it? The ottoman’s off limits to Andy but Dougy’s asleep in the guest bedroom. Time for a snoop!
So snoop he does!
Andy is transfixed in amazement. Dougy’s really marked this ottoman as his – scratch-scratch-scratch!
(Andy didn’t grow a third eye for this photo!) Aghast, Andy quickly backs off from the “sacred” ottoman for a moment, then has an inspiration! He decides to mess with his brother. He hops on the ottoman and walks all over it. That’s what brothers are for. After all, take the “r” out of “brother” and you have “bother”! Ha! Later, Dougy does have a snit when he smells Andy’s scent all over his ottoman!
It’s funny how territorial cats can be, even when they’ve been living together for years.
Yeah, and are close relatives like the kitty boys. Brotherly tolerance is more like it, not brotherly love! LOL! They get along well as long as little territorial issues are resloved.
The scenting thing they do is very interesting! Lucio likes to do that with Abby’s blankets. She won’t sleep on them again until I wash his scent off! 🙂
It is interesting behavior, and a source of contention over priorities on certain furniture and features around the house.
The Basset Hound at my house gets her doggy stink and furrs all over everything. Sometimes she gets drooly bits on things, too. Can I trade her for Andy? Tee hee hee.
LOL! Andy is until contract to stay here.
doodz…..we understand all bout leevin scentz heer ther N everee wear !! 🙂 ♥♥
Inote that Dougy immediately scratched angrily on the ottoman to destroy the alien scent!
I would have loved to see Dougy’ reaction.
He was very upset and scratched angrily on the ottoman to try to get rid of Andy cooties! LOL!
the scent challenge is on here too… that’s what boys are do right?
Exactly! Dougy got Andy’s message in an instant. He then scratched angrily on the ottoman to rid it of Andy’s cooties!
