Getting Sassy
-v-, Ezra and I share a houses with two cats, and Sassy in one of two cats. Sassy is an introverted cat. She likes to sit and look at things for a long time. She enjoys calm and quiet times. When there is loud sudden noise or lots of action toward her, she prefers to jog or run away and search for another place to have a calm and quiet time.
I really don’t think Ezra gets Sassy right now. Ezra wants to crawl fast and loud at Sassy and grab Sassy’s tail and tackle Sassy like he does Jigga, which is something we are teaching him not to do to Jigga all the time. Jigga, the other cat, doesn’t appear mind the rough play and grabbing of Ezra, and Jigga seems to sort of like it most of the time. Sassy, however, only likes soft pets and slow brushing when she wants to be petted and the laser light or a stick to chase when she wants to play, so I don’t know how long it will take for Ezra to be able to pet or play with Sassy.
