That's lovely to see. They must be very at ease with each other to sleep that close.

That's definitely going well. Brilliant news!

I think it's going quite well... here's a pic

It's funny how all cats seem to have their own variation on "wake up calls." Glad things are going so well.

Beauty and the Beast all over again - and that turned out very well in the end

shame these Bengals have to be so beastly though

tigerbaby · « **Reply #22 on:** April 22, 2009, 20:21:32 PM »

Thanks all. It is going pretty well. I fed them just now - Capone puked, the bengal sniffed it, whacked him over the head and chased him up the stairs. Poor submissive Capone. She definiately likes him though, as she'll sit and watch him and then decide to join him in the play - usually by slapping his face and stealing his toy - but they do sleep and eat together, and are mainly naughty when they are bored. In the mornings I'll have Capone poking my face and bengal lady walking on my back while yelling really really loudly. They make a very cute team - a purebreed perfect bengal lady, and a scruffy tail and toothless rescue boy!

I am so out of the loop right now but I will catch up over the next little while now I'm online properly!

for you.

Sounds much like Chilli and Dave's relationship when she first got back and now they are bestest friends (Dave still very much the submissive half

).

I do demand some pictures and a name for Ms Bengal though please

sorry to hear you are having a tough time - the bengal sounds about right - she probably end up crying for him to chase her like mine does!

Big

Hun - sorry to hear that life is a bit upside down for you at the moment. Glad that you and Capone are together x

Queen B sounds like a typical Bengal lady, I am sure she will soon fall for the handsome Capone x

Thinking of you

tigerbaby · « **Reply #1 on:** April 17, 2009, 18:40:58 PM »

Sorry to have been MIA lately. I've been going through some major changes - and without going into it too much- me and Capone are now living semi-permanently at another place.

It was just me first, but I found being apart from the Owl really, really difficult. The person I'm staying with has a female bengal who doesn't really like other cats (stems from being bullied by other cats when younger). It wasn't until a week ago, we decided to try introducing the two. The bengal instantly took a dislike to Capone, who was overwhelmed by excitement and love. He was being hissed & growled at, while he tried to declare his love to this new female.... However... twice now we've found them sleeping on the same bed, and they now sniff each other without much growling or swiping. The bengal is still very much showing that she is the queen B of the house, putting Capone in his place and there has been a few swipes and scruffles, but they are able to play a game of Da Bird together, eat together etc. It's early days but it's amazing to see Capone really happy & excited - his new fave spot is chilling out on the stairs, and will stay close to the bengal as much as he can get away with! He is not very tactful (due to being over excited I think!) and will randomly walk up to her to sniff her bum, or worse - use her litter tray (while she is watching), but he is always firmly told off by her, in shape of a hiss, growl or whack over the head. There has been a lot of chasing up & down the stairs today!

I've had a few good belly laughs at them - when I fed them last night the bengal wouldn't touch her bowl, instead walked up to Capones, hissed at him, made him walk away, ate his food, then went back to her bowl to finish her food. Another time, Capone was minding his own business playing with a toy mouse, when queen b walked up to him, and took the mouse away from him. Capone being too submissive to ''talk back'' so he just looks bewildered. Bengal lady also loves hiding in the crinkle tunnel, teasing him to come inside, and as soon as Capone pokes his head into the tunnel he'll get a whack over the head!

There is a catflap here, which leads to a pretty secure courtyard. Capone doesn't know how to use the flap, but I have supervised him while he's had a sniff around outside. As soon as I've had him microchipped I will teach him how to use it.

Think that's all. It's lovely to see how happy Capone is in the company of another cat. Even though the other cat treats him like a piece of dirt - although we think she secretly loves him.
