So, Lucy has been curious about Kiwi my buff tabby since we brought her home. Kiwi, being almost 4 years old, is the alpha male among my little menagerie.
After being smacked by him a couple times, Lucy quickly learned to leave Kiwi alone. That's when he started getting brave. He actually COMES AFTER HER, and then has the nerve to hiss and smack her. Poor thing, she just looks at me all confused with those big chocolate eyes that say "But MOM! I didn't do anything!".
It hasn't gotten too serious, more of a nuisance. Until last night.
Mr. Almighty Kiwi flat out downright attacked my Lucy. And it only took 1 good smack to drop her little 4-month-old-behind.
So here I sit in my office at work. I just walked in the door. It is 12:30. I can blame this 4 1/2 hour delay on the fact that Sean and I just spent 3 hours at the vet getting Miss Lucy's eye flushed, stained, cleaned and medicated up. Kiwi scratched a 1/4" long gouge in her third eyelid. THANK HEAVENS it did not touch her cornea.
She's doing fine, couldn't figure out what all the fuss was about. Guess she's more of a trooper than I am!
And as for Kiwi...after getting his nailed clipped by his not so happy daddy, I decided to do the worst thing he (Kiwi) could ever imagine in his life.
He's going on a diet.
