Corners To Be Turned

Moxy has been wary of Brazil since Brazil went after him a couple of times. ‘Attack’ is too strong a word; cat-people will know what I mean: Shimmer was likely just trying to boss the Mixer around, to show who’s boss, as he has tried - and still does periodically - with Imogen.

I haven’t seen Brazil do this with Moxy for some time, perhaps a couple of weeks. Instead, Brazil appears to be trying to befriend the big, hefty boy. He repeatedly sniffs Mox’s nose, though Moxy probably suspects a trap and retreats half the time. But today, I found the two of them on the bed together.

Furthermore, Valkyrie later joined them, and Shimmer groomed the kitten for several minutes, while lying next to Moxy. The latter seemed ready to give Shimmer the benefit of the doubt. I of course have no idea what happens when I am at work, but if this weekend is an indication, a corner may have been turned.

Then again, knowing cats, maybe I should be on guard as much as Moxy…
