All seems to be well, with the menagerie. Rowdy has decided that Buddy makes a good playmate - he doesn't hiss at her and give her a swat, like Opie does.
Finally, I have a snuggle kitty. Opie is very aloof and dignified. He comes around, now and then, for an ear scratch. Rowdy is too cussed ornery to sit still, for long. Buddy is a snuggler, though.
Last night, he decided to settle in between Bill and me. He's welcome in the bed and he can sleep on either side but NOT in the middle! He spent part of the night at my feet and part against Bill.
Buddy still isn't having any part of the dogs, though. I tried introducing him to Ike. Buddy hissed and spat and scared Ike to death! Ike ran around behind Bill and shook like a leaf! We had to laugh at this great big dog, afraid of a 10-lb pussycat. Pearl is a bit too rambunctious, as yet. We don't want to freak Buddy out, too much.
