A big moment in the Andylandia vs. Dougylandia kitty lounger wars!
A nonviolent shift change! Dougy yields to Andy for time on the second kitty lounger and there was no squabble or posturing beforehand.

Peace in our time. 🐱🐱
Yes!
It looks like you two have come to some resolution. Winks, purrs, and luvs.
Finally! The answer was simple and easy to do.
Some fancy moves with those duelling tails though!
That’s exactly how it strikes me, too! Dueling tails! Little battle flags.
The first glimpse of the age of maturity. As always, they are the cutest when you capture them together, Doug.
I like it best, too! The interactions between the two tend to make the best posts.
Definitely.
Some of that’s coming up in posts I have prepared for the coming week. Spending so much time at home as I do and need to do now I see lots happening between the kitty boys. You know, like Jane Goodall and the chimpanzees of the Gombe Stream National Park, only with more (barely) manageable Persian cats!
Hard to believe she’s 86 years old now. Of course. I’ve followed her since she began her studies, had her book published and I’m just recently 72! Sadly, she suffers a condition where she can’t recognize faces any longer. Here’s a link to a description of what she has:

Very sad; she is a remarkable woman.
The irony of the condition for someone who made a lifetime’s work out of just that ability makes it all the more tragic, don’t you think, Dolly? She’s a personal hero, and I was devastated when I read this.
I agree.
Very cute shift change.
I was happy to see them behave! They continue to behave now that there are two prime location kitty loungers available. Sometimes they boop each other once or twice lightly, not meaning it but feeling they need to gently remind each other of kitty things. Just now, they are doing their chase things where they take turns being the prey and run wildly through the apartment till they tire out.
Yay
Sometimes the cats do surprise us! Dougy’s ottoman has seen some claw action. 🙂
“Some” indeed! Dang cat! Dougy and I have had a long time fight about that problem. At some point, I will have no kitties, and then I’ll have it recovered. Of course, if there is material made of Kevlar, it might be kitty proof. I’ve tried different things to stop this behavior, but apparently am not smarter than a cat!
Lucio went after Rick’s exercise bench some years ago. It was brown vinyl, so we covered the scratches with appropriately matching duct tape. As for other furniture, the best luck I have had was to put an approved scratching post in front of the favorite scratching spot. That has worked the best, so far, but I am not sure what you could do for your poor ottoman. 🙂
Replace it and cover it in aluminum foil…!
it seems even our pets know how to handle things properly this time… but we humans… not always LOL
So it seems. We need to take our clues from them on how to handle “incarceration” in our homes.
