Luthien, The Bully
We told alendark's sister that we'd watch her kitty while she went on vacation this week with the rest of the family.
Poor little soul. Luthien, being the dominant brat that he is, cornered her under the end table under the phone. I'm sure she was there all night ... and probably still is now. alendark said she came out this morning when he was getting ready for work. Then Luthien hissed at her and scared her right back into her hidey-hole.
I cannot imagine how Luthien - he who asserted dominance over his sister by eating her whiskers - he who would trap poor Widget (the in-law's pup) in the kitchen just by sitting in the doorway and staring at her - he who is the fat monster kitty of doom - could be threatened by a little fluffball. And trust me, this poor girl is more fluff than substance.
Admittedly, it wasn't the most opportune introduction. alendark's sis stopped by at around 10:15/10:30 and we were able to shadow Jake while she explored her new surroundings, and stop any domineering hisses. But, sis had to go pick up bro at the airport at 11pm, and we had work this morning. So, poor little gal got cornered into her hidey-hole around Midnight and I'm sure she hasn't been out since.
I do hope we can come to an agreement. We only have Cousin Jake for the rest of the week, and I'd hate for her entire experience to be a nightmare.
