1st Cat Fight!

Scarlett is staying with us for 1 week while her mommy goes to Cambodia. I know Scarlett for a while now and she always sits on my lap when I go visit them. She is a very sweet cat though she bosses the dogs around quite a bit. So I was quite excited to introduce Scarlett to the Spice Cats so they can be friends.

Sonia brought Scarlett over to my place on Tuesday night. Scarlett was already very grumpy as she has been to the vet earlier that morning. Having seen the 4 Spice Cats, Scarlett wasn’t very happy and hissed at them from Sonia’s arms. Sonia tried to calm Scarlett for a while, then put Scarlett down on the dining room chair.

Scarlett then jumped down from the chair. Pepper was the first to go up to Scarlett. But Pepper went up to Scarlett too near and too fast. They were staring at each other face to face and Scarlett hissed at Pepper and slapped Pepper with her paws. Pepper wasn’t very happy and they fought! The very 1^st Cat Fight in my house! Gosh!

I was a bit stunned and you can hear the loudest cat fight in the house! The fight didn’t last long and it ended with Scarlett running away and jumping on the kitchen top which Pepper chasing after her. Sonia quickly picked her up from the kitchen top. Scarlett was growling and hissing at Pepper from Sonia’s arms. I raised my voice at Pepper and she ran away to the living room. Gosh! What a drama!

We then decided that Scarlett is not going to make friends with the Spice Cats and brought Scarlett upstairs into the Cats’ Room where she will most likely spend most of her time in the Spice Cats house.

Oh yeah, did I mentioned that Sesame was so scared with the whole thing that he went to hide on the stairs? Well, so much of being the biggest Spice Cats.

Scarlett on Wednesday morning, still a bit grumpy.

Scarlett on Wednesday night, much nicer and allowed into my room.

Scarlett, settling down in my room.

When I opened my room's door to go get some water, Scarlett rushed out and bumped into Pepper again, who is sitting outside my room. Gosh! Another cat fight! Scarlett ran back inside my room and hid under the bed, with Pepper chasing her. I had to shout at Pepper again to get out of the room. Poor Scarlett. They are obviously NOT going to get along.

After a few hours, I decided to introduce Scarlett to Garlic, so I brought Scarlett back into the cats' room. Scarlett hissed at Garlic at first. But when Garlic kept his distance and did not hiss back, Scarlett calmed down a bit.


"You big bad white cat, you better not come near me!"

"But I just wanna play, please? Pretty please?"


They settled down, but kept their distance. Its good progress considering the cat fight earlier. You can always count on Garlic to calm a cat down.
