We've had Peaches for 3 or 4 weeks now and she has certainly made our home her home. She tormented Frosty until he had to accept her - but he won't let her run over him completely. She attacks his tail (which is always twitching) and he just puts up with it. BUT when she attacked his head, he bit her foot. She cried and cried - and then went back for more. He isn't as lonely and mopey as he was - and he's always pretty close to her.
The big new discovery for her this week was the FISH!! We have two stock tanks in the basement filled with the goldfish and koi from the pond. The first day she discovered them she (and this is guessing) must have stood by the pond and tried to catch them all day. There was a lot of water on the floor that evening. So Tim went to the Hardware and got some hail screen to cover the tanks. She loved it - she just walked out to the middle of the tank and sat down to watch fish.
She really has a sweet tooth - loves human food and especially frosting (She's as bad as some of my sisters!). Decorating a cake becomes a challenge. This morning I practiced good discipline techniques, I think. I removed her from the table with a firm NO, and sat her on the floor - 5 or 6 times. Then I sort of knocked her off the table with a firm NO for a few times. I think she's learning.

I just hope your fish don't start having heart attacks. Hillary sat in the middle of my hamster cage one summer and that little hamster just keeled over dead. I think he had a heart attack. I am glad that Frosty is liking her better.
ReplyDeleteHow funny! That is pretty smart. Im glad she is working out and getting used to your home.
