Cats Tuesday: Buddy Rules

Towards the end of winter, I captured Buddy as he intimidated Charlie who was hiding under the bookcase off camera. The fights are fewer now that they are getting outside.

Here they go again. The fights are fewer now because Buddy's territory is the house and Charlie's territory is the barn. Buddy can't enter the barn and Charlie carefully avoids Buddy in the house at night. Don't feel too bad for Charlie. He gives it as good as he gets!

Please forgive me for not visiting everyone last week. I may not be able to visit this week, either. We have had a death in the family. Your comments and support are important and meaningful for me and I know how understanding you all are. You are an important part of my life and I miss visiting you. Bless you all. Please give everyone you love a hug and a kiss today.

Thank you for visiting.

Happy COT!

  1. Ziggy was to be our barn cat but since we had a long hard winter.
    I started to feed him indoors and now I'm thinking of taking his food outside.

    I'm sorry to hear there been a death in the family.

  2. I am so sorry about the death in your family. There will be times when we all can't visit everyone so we need to remember that in your case too! Oh the joy of Spring. Mine are very terratorial too. Our house is divided into all kinds of sections. Only the alpha male Darius has full domain. And he loves it.

  3. I'm sorry about your family member.
    I do hope things get better soon.

    My mom bean hasn't been able to do much blogging or visiting on her site. She's been busy with her book and the few hours a day that she can do things. But she's been helping me with my birthday party, too. It's Thursday, May 1st. I hope you come see what we're doing.

    Hugs...G

  4. So sorry for your loss. We look
    forward to your posts. Seems to
    be a lot of fussing and fighting
    with all the kitties on COT.
    Spring is in the air!? (Purrs)

  5. With a death in the family you certainly don't feel like blogging but thanks you participated anyway and sorry to hear about it.
    These male cats are funny in spring with their macho behaviour !

  6. I think Buddy and Charlie are good examples of Mancats!

  7. I hope everything is fine with you now. My deepest condolences. Luckily my cats are still so close to each other. Maybe growing up as a family has something to do with that but I'm keeping my fingers crossed as they are growing up real fast to be adults.

  11. Sorry to hear about death in your close family. All of us, in a certain age, do know ----

    You cats are beautiful. And seems to be good friends after all. Of course they will preserve their territories, they are Cats. And thanks for that.
