    They get along fine, except when Tiger wants to go to his little house (his cat carrier) and Bog is lying in front of it. Bog is so big and Tig can’t get around him easily. Tiger will try to jump on the Bog and Bog just looks at him. Meow!!

    Awwww, tell Bog not to block the entrance to little Tiger’s house! He’s a super smart kitty, he should understand!

    Bogman sounds so great, just laying there putting up with Tiger. How did he react when you first brought Tiger home?

    Bogman thought that he was Tiger’s mama! I mean, Tiger used to nurse on Bog (sorta like Bailey, only within the same species) and Bog still thinks that Tiger is his “baby” and nobody better yell at the little one. He jumped on my dad when Pop yelled at Tiger for getting on the counter in the kitchen. Meow!!!

    Awwwww, Bog rocks!

    I’d like to get another kitty at some point to keep Bob company, but I’m pretty sure the little Man would NOT like to share his Mama, toys – and blanket! Bobsky still loves to suck on his blankie, so I’m hoping this means he’s not going to grow out of it! Does Tiger still try to nurse or did he stop with time?

    Welllll, he still tries, but since Bog came home, nursing on the Little Gray Face is pretty much out of the question. Bailey just lies there and lets TigerButt snuggle. I want to get pictures of all my fur babies and when I do I will post them on Catster (I guess Bailey can go on there. He is, after all, an honorary CAT!)

    GreatDane, Bob might be okay with a smallish kitten. They tend to not view them as much of a threat, in a competing-for-affections kind of way. That goes double if you don’t pay too much attention to the new kitten, at first.

    My mom, may she rest in peace, had a cat she named because of its audacity. She told me this little tiny male kitten decided he still needed to nurse. The only other critter in the house, besides Mom, was a 6 year old male miniature schnauzer. So this kitten decided he needed to nurse, and latched onto the schnauzer’s belly and hung on for a wild ride through the house.

    When she told me this, I laughed so hard I nearly cried. When I could catch my breath, I told her, “My goodness – Mom, that cat has a lot of chutzpah!” So, sure enough, the cat’s name became Chutzpah.

    Yay, can’t fault Bailey for wanting to be a cat! Cats rule!

    Maybe you should introduce TigerButt to a new friend to spare Bailey – Blankie!

    Ha, yay for Chutzpah! Your Mom should have given him a blankie!

    Nah, he already had a schnauzer! 😉

    Besides, a few months later my mom found Chutzpah a playmate; she was named Misty, a lovely soft gray longhair. Since my mom passed away, Misty’s now my cat, and the senior matriarch in my house.

    She’s a smallish, lovey-dovey kneading licking lapcat with a big purr. Funny enough, both Amelia and Violet have taken a liking to her; I think her purring reminds them of Mama Kitty.

    GD, he has a blankie that his “Auntie” Jamie from kitty sleep away camp gave him (an old piece of a baby blanket) but he really prefers Bailey’s ears. It is SO funny to watch Tiger clamp on Bailey’s long furry ears and go for a ride.

    Awwww, glad Misty, Violet and Amelia are all getting along!

    If I got the Bob a playmate at some point, should I get another male? Or would there be territorial issues? Would a female be less threatening to the Bob?

    Awwww, Tiger!

    I’m afraid my (Bob’s!) blanket is getting a bit nasty! We had a talk last night about the possibility of Mama getting a new blanket. Guess who won that one! Bobsky only ever sucks on the blanket – would he suck on another one if that was all he had available, do you think?

    #65568

    Nope, he wants HIS blankie!!!!! and he would probably do what the King does and pout if he didn’t get his way. Poor Bobster

    Oh, NO, I can’t handle Pouting Bob!

    I’ll probably end up getting myself another comforter and keeping the nasty(sorry Bob) blanket for Bob’s enjoyment! It’s funny, this actually used to be my favorite blanket, too, before Bobster’s little habit nastified it!
