The cats were getting along begrudinglyThe cats were behaving perfectlyThe cats were sleeping fitfullyThe cats were hurting each other
What was happening ?
At one time I had two cats who would hiss and spit and tear about when the other came near . It was quite an impressive show of conflict . When I moved into a small house the situation became even more unpleasant . I was awoken in the night by furious , exploding encounters .
