Not sure what's going on with Patch and his sister
15Oct17
This morning there was no Mask, but everyone else was ready for breakfast. I've renamed Black Tail to Growler because she has become a feeding regular and she always growls at me to feed her then runs and hides or hisses depending on the foulness of her mood.
Going out for an errand, I saw Calico in our back yard. She was chasing after something, and I picked her up. I'd take her home with me in a minute. She doesn't know I'm a pushover for feeding and so she didn't demand food. Coming back from an errand, no Calico, but we saw Mask running down the sidewalk.
GG comes up for breakfast then sleeps awhile. GG was sleeping the entire time we were gone. He stays in the house until lunch and gets obnoxious trying to eat our food. Well, it's flea season and I got out the flea comb and started working on him. He loved it, except when I'd get a rather large and robust flea in the comb it would startle me and in turn startle him. It freaked him out enough that he bit and scratched my hand.
By the way, GG is David's cat. I think one of the reasons he prefurs David (get it -- fur) is because David doesn't feed the other cats. GG doesn't like it that I am feeding all his competition.
So he went outside and I wanted to see if Fluffy or Calico would come up. GG was downstairs sleeping. Bag saw me and meowed a few times telling me he was hungry. I went back upstairs for food, to my surprise Patch met me half way down the stairs. I gave him a little food on the ground, but here comes GG and he chases Patch out of his hallway. I go downstairs to feed everybody and GG is mad. He went after Growler and a bit of fur flew, then he started after Loper. Loper was facing him head on, and I tapped her with the bag of cat food, she jumped about a mile and hissed at me. I tried to calm GG down by petting him with long slow strokes. It calmed him a bit, but boy he's mad because I feed those other cats.
I went around the corner and got Patch fed.
Upstairs GG is so gentle, but he's turned into a monster when it comes to downstairs feeding. From now on before I feed anybody he needs to be locked in our apartment.
