Our household has three pets; a German Shephard dog named Gandolff, and two cats, Harley and Shanti. I have to be honest, the dog is mine... Jay is all about cats. Therefore, we have a houseful of pets.
We got Harley as a kitten. He was so sweet. We got Shanti a year later as a one year old. Shanti was sick when we got her, it took a full three weeks to get her well. Anyway, our pets have a dynamics all their own.
Harley and Gandolff get along well. It is the funniest thing to see a big dog eating lunch with a cat between his legs waiting for him to drop something. Right now, Harley is up on Gandolffs bed. Gandolff is asleep on the floor next to the bed. Gandolff usually doesn't allow Harley to keep his bed but he did today. Now Shanti is asleep on the table next to him. Gandolff and Shanti only tolerate each other. Gandolff will chase Shanti if he an get away with it. Must be a boy/girl thing!
Harley is our morning cat... Doesn't matter the day of the week, he will start purring in Jay or my face at 6:00 in the morning. He also owns our master bath. Anyone in the bathroom has to stop and pet him or he will continue to rub against you until you do. Shanti stays out of the master bedroom, hanging mostly in the boys room. But she is also our lap cat. However, true to a torti, it is only on her terms. If you visit and you don't like cats, she will head right to you. At least she lets us sleep.
It is good to have pets though. The boys have someone to take care of, someone to walk, and someone to clean up after. And they definiately make us laugh. Keeps you young!
