WE RECENTLY RECEIVED A CAT FROM MY MOM THAT ADOPTED ATHENA. THE CAT WAS ALWAYS AT MY MOMS HOUSE WHEN ATHENA WAS THERE. MY MOM WAS FEEDING IT, BUT WHEN IT STARTED GETTING COLD OTHER CATS STARTED EATING HIS FOOD. SO AS A FAVOR WE TOOK THE CAT.
ATHENA DECIDED SHE WANTED TO NAME THE BLUE. WE TOOK THE CAT HOME AND NOW HE DOESN'T SEEM TO WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH ATHENA. SHE JUST DOESN'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON AND WHY BLUE DOESN'T LIKE HER ANY MORE.
I HAVE TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO HER THAT PULLING THE CATS TAIL AND WRINGING IT LIKE A WASHCLOTH HURTS THE CAT, JUST LIKE SOMEBODY PULLING HER HAIR.
I HAVE ALSO TOLD HER BLUE DOESN'T WANT TO BE PUT IN HER BIKINI. SHE ASKS ME WHY AND THE ONLY THING THAT I COULD THINK TO TELL HER THAT SHE WOULD UNDERSTAND IS BLUE IS A BOY AND BOY'S DON'T LIKE TO HEAR GIRL CLOTHES.
SHE LIKES TO WRAP HIM UP IN BLANKETS AND TRY TO CARRY HIM AROUND AND SHE ENDS UP DROPPING HIM. SHE LIKES TO HIDE HIS FOOD AND WATER FROM HIM. SHE SAYS HE'S IN TROUBLE AND SO THAT'S WHY HE CAN'T HAVE IT.
I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TWO GET A TWO YEAR OLD TO UNDERSTAND THAT CATS ARE NOT LIKE DOGS AND THEY JUST WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE MOST OF THE TIME. SOME TIMES I FEEL SO BAD FOR THE POOR LITTLE CAT.
MY HUSBAND LIKES TO PICK ON HIM. HE THINKS IT'S HIS RIGHT TO SLEEP IN MY SPOT ON THE BED, AND MY DAUGHTER IS ALWAYS TREATING HIM LIKE ONE OF HER BABY DOLLS.
