Ishtar makes herself at home
Miss Ishtar has settled in quite nicely. She seems to have taken ownership of my apartment rather easily. She poses pretty well for photos too. She also seems to enjoy clawing up my couch too. I’m experimenting with a method I heard about that is supposed to prevent the clawing. If it works, I’ll let you know.
Mabel and Ishtar are doing well together, however, they do fight and hiss and growl. Usually it’s Ishtar starting the fights. Some nights I wake up because they’re fighting on the bed next to me. That’s never a fun way to wake up.
Two cats and their fur, along with my long hours at the new job make time at home a bit rougher on my sinuses. Today I’ve spent the day vacuuming and cleaning. It’s kicked up things more than I anticipated so my nose is insane at the moment. But, I’m sure things will settle down and I’ll get back into the swing of things and get on top of keeping the dander in check. Well, here’s hoping at least…
Mabel & Ishtar relax near each other on the couch
I’ll sign off with picture proof that the two of them can co-exist in harmony. See, they’re relaxing near each other on the same end of the couch. Sometimes they’re quiet and happy. It wasn’t a total mistake to take in Ishtar. She’s a nice cat. It’s all good.
Nice to see the tuxedo girls mostly getting along. One suggestion for scratching is this spray called No Scratch. Do know if I mentioned it before. The other is that you use an inexpensive paper filter mask when cleaning. That’ll keep the particulates out of your nose and, hopefully, keep the allergic reaction to a minimum.
I have some of each and will share.
