Either my bunch is old enough they don't care, or they were still in shock by the time I left for work this morning. As most of you know, I have 3 older chihuahuas and 2 cats left to my herd. My brother has a wonderful mellow, happy go lucky Border Collie, a Pekenese rescue, and a very plump black and white kitty.
I have had him visit with the collie before, and they all did fine. The cats weren't so sure though. And after having met his kitty, Chronic, this morning I think he may outweigh my Yummy. Wonder if the house can stand two kitties who think they're rhinos. LOL
This should be an adventure with the animals at least. By the time I left this morning, Djinn was absolutely acting like he was traumatized from the get go, and was hiding upstairs, Yummy and Chronic we just staring at each other over the food bowl, and the dogs were actually doing all ok together so far. Only Thumbelina had to bark at the new person who she hadn't met until today. And at last report via my brother before lunchtime, my bunch and the peke were all ensconced on top of Christy his step daughter on the couch while she slumbered away. Of course I worry about Lil' Shit probably the most as he is rather territorial. So we'll see.
And Sir Yummy is the laird of the manor, so if Chronic is as laid back as my brother claims there won't be a problem. LOL
In the meantime, I think it is going to be a bit hectic round the house. And if need be while they adjust I may try a aromatherapy essence for pets to keep them calm, it was recommended to me by a friend, I think it's called Feliway. They claim it's the ticket to reducing stress of introducing a new pet to the household.
Here is Djinn watching from the bookshelves. Hmmmm, think I will have to get new pics soon. Maybe take my brother and his doggies over to the dog park to socialize.
