My pets and I have
been living quite well in a roomy apartment where I have my own room and plenty
of sunny windows. I thought I was in
heaven. Then the other day, my pets brought
this other cat into the house. At first, all she did was yell at me and warn
me not to come near her. I was happy
with that, and gave as good (if not better) than I got. But I was not happy with the fact that she
wanted to use all of my stuff.
Finally, being the
bigger and better cat, I relented and gave her a good sniff. I was nearly knocked over, because I knew
that scent. It was the scent of the
female that had given me food when I was young.
I never expected to smell that scent again, I mean who does? No one wants to feel like a baby again,
right? So what do I do now?

“Dear Crowded,
Ah, the joys of being
a grown up and taking on the responsibilities of an adult feline. You will have to make a decision,
Crowded. Do you want to go back to a
comfortable serine life that you share with a bad memory, or do you want to get
back your own?
No one wants to live
with their mother, and no one wants to have to put up with her screeching at
them like when they were young. Choose
carefully, however, because your pets, despite the fact that you rule, are
still bigger than you and will often react unpredictably. To keep the peace, you might need to ‘accept’ this female back into your life
despite the horrid reminders it will give you.
Try to forget the smell and treat her as you would any other stranger. That will make it much easier to enforce
boundaries and show that you rule!
Hope this answer
helps. Good luck.
Signed Cocoa”
