Thanks, Nina.
I'm off to bed for a long talk with
Cricket.
G'nite all!

Sometimes I'll shame them into being nicer... You know,
something like, Cricket, Cotton knows how tough you are, it's not necessary to
be so firm! Be nice to your little brother and Cotton, you respect
Cricket, she has a lot to teach you. It was so funny, I remember the
first time one of my bottle babies hissed at Instigator. My mouth
dropped open, I can't remember which one it was, but all of them where
surrounding Instigator and one of them threatened him. They were about a
10th his size at the time. I told them that they had better not treat
Instigator that way, he was strong and wise and he was their protector!
They all looked up at me like they understood exactly what I was talking
about. From that day on they showed Instigator the respect he's due and
Instigator never had to get firm with them.

I told the other cats that they needed to help me teach Cotton
manners, that he's just a little
boy. Maybe Cricket is just overzealous, and took it a
little to
the extreme. S
