The Mixer Does It Again

Indigo has a reputation in the Cosy Cabin for being a bit grumpy with the other cats. She will growl at them even from a distance. She and Imogen share a particular antipathy, while even little Valkyrie raised Indie’s ire enough to be chased several times from the bedroom.


But Indie seems to tolerate one of her roommates. Not surprisingly, it is Moxy. The Mixer’s presence is found to be much less odious to Indigo’s sensitivities than the others’. He becomes alarmed at her proximity, but only because of her actions with his fellow felines. For the most part, Indie will satisfy herself with a short hiss before allowing him to settle near her; sometimes, she doesn’t even do that. Periodically, it is she who will be the second on the scene, climbing Min’s cat-tree to look out the window, for instance, when Moxy is already on the top platform.



I don’t know if Moxy’s harmless personality will translate for every cat, but as far as Indigo is concerned, the Mixer has earned his nickname once more.

  1. Moxy may just have to be a permanent addition to the Cosy Cottage so any newcomers can be made comfortable.

  2. I echo Carol, Moxy is a good boy. He's the perfect cat to help integrate others as they come into the Cosy Cabin.
