Rude to stare!

Our house is like a 3 ring circus at times as we have 3 cats who only get on together in varying degrees. Fuzz gets on well with Spike, Fuzz gets on ok with Roxie who tolerates him at a distance. Roxie and Spike are another matter - Spike is terrified of her and she uses it to full advantage. I've lost count of all the times I've found him trapped in a small corner or under a sofa while Roxie sits looking totally disinterested - until he moves and then the chase is on!
Roxie was growling quietly all the time I took this and several other shots.

This is just wonderful, you could start a feline psychology group.

A great story telling shot with these two beauties at a sort of sit off.
The light coming in through the window is beautiful.

Cats do have distinct personalities and relationships with each other. I can feel the tension in this well captured encounter. V.

Intimidating behaviour is not confined to humans I see :)

The lighting is gorgeous!!
As for the cats, I miss having more than 1!!
But I'm so allergic now, that even the one I have lives outdoors 24/7 now (and loves it)
