2.0's cat, ebony, really doesn't like effie and niles. She hates 'em like movita hates leaf blowers. The fur has been flying in the new house for a few weeks now. There have been some sleepless nights for all of us. ebony is pretty tough - like street gang tough - and is happy to put the beats on movita's cats with the slightest provocation. Though 2.0 and movita have been dealing with things the best they can, and have tried a number of things to assist the kitties in adjusting to their new living arrangement, they are always trying to come up with new ideas to address the situation.
2.0: (turning to face movita on the couch) Maybe we need something for all three cats to do together. You know, something fun. Then they'd do that together and forget all about fighting with one another. They would bond.
movita: Such as?
2.0: Well, we could go to a pet store and buy a tiiiny bird.
movita: Uh...
2.0: And then we could set it free in the house! All of the cats would work together to hunt it.
movita: No.
2.0: But if they killed something together they would probably get along better. They'd have a lot of fun. Cats like killing birds.
movita: No.
2.0: We'll think about it.

My office calls this type of exercise Team Building.
Exactly! Everyone knows team building is useful. I think 2.0 might be on to something here.
Please refrain from encouraging 2.0.
Even concerning the baby factory? Chrissie is such a pretty name!!
lady I will show them how to get a rabbit.

The Process of Natural Selection
(or How To End the Cat Fights)
1. Place Luke in room.
2. Place Kitties in room.
3. Say "Go, Boy! Go get the rabbits!"
3. Set a time limit.
4. A very short time limit.
5. Open door. Either three cats, less cats, and/or no dog!
Oh, wait! The part about maybe no dog doesn't work out very well. Hmmm... what about a clothes line in the backyard, three ropes and harnesses, and a fake bird on a long stick and then race... Oh, I don't know!
Hmmmm. The idea of hookin' 'em up to the clothes line ain't bad... fresh air, grass, birds...
The dog idea won't work. ebony would kill him. No lie.
Only if i choke on her tail.
