Hi,
I think I am having a slight jealousy issue with Lucky towards Bugsy... Since Bugsy got home, almost a month ago, Lucky has become much more attached to me - she has turned from a somewhat skittish kitty to a velcro kitty... All is good, in between to both of them - the play, hang out together, and are always around each other. They don't fight, don't hiss, or anything bad... The only problem I have, and I am having a little hard time in dealing with is this: Bugsy is an extremely cuddly and sweet boy, who will do anything for a belly rub. Whenever I am petting Lucky, he comes around for some love too, and that's when it happens: Lucky immediately turns around, and goes away from me - she makes the point to face the other way, and close her eyes as to say: no meowmy: either you give me your full attention, or you wont have the honor to pet me!
So, I am often faced with the choice of petting Bugsy or her - but not at the same time... Which is hard, as Bugsy doesn't understand, and keep coming for love.
How do I deal with this, so this doesn't make her eventually grow to hate him? And how do I satisfy my boys incredible thirst for love at the same time?
Thanks!
