Changes in Our Lives

by SassyJazmine

We have had a couple big changes in our lives, Jessie more than me, but the real biggie for me is when Uncle Jeffie moved back home and brought Right and Left here to live. Now that is what I call a BIG change.

Right and Left are so laid-back and casual about everything, they settled right in, but it wasn't quite that simple for Jessie, she took the intruders very hard. It took me a whole day or so to get used to them.

Meowmie put them in the Florida room with food, water, toys and their litter box. There is a sliding glass door there, and Jessie would go up to the door and hiss and be so fierce and mean. But it didn't take me long to figure out that the little guy just might be fun to play with and the big guy really a lot of fun to torment, which as it turned out, was exactly the way it went.

After a few days Mom opened the sliding door about an inch, so we could smell each other, and Right and I would stick our paws through the door and try to box, that was a lot of fun, Jessie of course would hiss and be hateful.

When they finally did get into the house, Jessie wouldn't let them come out of the living room, she would stand in the doorway and be so mean to them. Right and I used that time to get to know each other and became fast friends.

Then Jessie started loosing ground when the three of us ganged up on her, and soon she was guarding the kitchen, then the hallway, then (gasp) meowmie's bedroom, and finally she was guarding meowmie's bed. No one was allowed in meowmie's bed, they would get trounced if they tried. Except me of course, I didn't pay any attention to her, I knew she was more scared of them then they were of her.

But it has been a year, Right has charmed her and Left and ignored her, then finally won her over with his sweetness, and I just love her, so our problems are finally over, and we have a very full bed at night, eveyone has their own spot to sleep, Jessie with the armpit, me cuddled up playing spoons with meowmie, Right by her left leg and Left by her Right leg, hey! There is something wrong with that picture don't you think?
