  1. Once, we had 2 cats who would romp with each other twice a day. Morning and evening. they would run all over the house attacking each other. All over the upstairs, down the stairs, all over the basement, and then back up the stairs to do it all again. One cat, who was huge, would jump 3 feet in the air and land on his back with his paws ready for another attack. the younger one would pounce and they would be at it again. They loved it. When the older cat died it was like he lost a parent. No more fun, sadly. I know they are in cat heaven together.

  2. Awwwww, the life of cats! Gracie’s boundless energy is sure to give Ivy a run for her money for a long time!

  3. That’s funny. Gracie has learned how to tease and bait Ivy into playing “chase” with her, LOL!

  4. Oh Brenda,
    scrolling down; the third picture down of Ivy’s face…. priceless!
    Thank You for this…

  5. I love love love all the stories of your cats. It keeps me entertained, just reading about their silly antics, lol! I wish you could post videos!! They’d be fun to watch in person. Thank you for sharing their stories.

  6. They are so funny. Love Ivy’s expressions. Does Gracie ever try to get in the cat tree? That could cause an all-out war!!

  7. The expressions on Ivy’s face are priceless! So much fun to watch them interact with each other. I raised both of my boys from babies, Dizzy’s now 12 and Sam Elliott’s 8 and they’re totally sweet well behaved guys, never leave the yard, come when they’re called, and are just so easy to live with if you don’t count the fact that they manage to sleep on every single thing in the house. That’s now. As kittens they were challenging to say the least, some things got broken. I’ve decided that my next rescue will be a gentle, quiet, and MATURE guy, but someone’s got to raise the babies. Yay you!!!

  8. I had to laugh out loud, when you mentioned that Ivy gave Gracie the “stink eye”. That is really what it looked like to me too. They are so funny and cute. I remember when Ivy would get on Charlies’s nerves sometimes. Now things have turned around for Ivy. Can’t wait to see someday, when they cuddle and nap together. Maybe…

    1. Yes yes ,,,,,, was gonna say the same exact thing re 🐈 Ivy. How she annoyed 🐶 Charlie at every turn!! Amazing to see it reversed now with Gracie!!!
      They might get along in the end. Then maybe they won’t. Depending on their personalities. Fun to see as long as no one gets hurt.

  9. Your Ivy is so much like my Maddie (who was also a rescue). She is the boss and SHE has her favorite spots that no one else dares to go. I have a tall quilt hutch that she claimed as her own as soon as she could jump up there…. she is also one of those who loves heights and being up high… so when our male rescue cat (Rudy) tried to join her up there, she would NOT have it.. lots of spats went on there too when they were younger, and it’s her throne now and Rudy knows he doesn’t dare jump up there! He will sit in the chair and look up there, but never ever jump up there now. They still “fight” but I think it’s mostly rough play.. lots of staring each other down, growling, paw hitting (no claws) and then rolling around on the floor. and then chasing up and down the hallway. Alot of it I think is her claiming her superiority if Rudy oversteps his bounds. The interaction between two like that is always interesting and fun, but sometimes it seems too rough so I have to step in and stop it. I’m sure in time, those two will know their boundaries and I know Ivy will love the company of Gracie, once Gracie knows her limits!

  10. I was just going to say the same thing as Gail. It is like having young kids in the home! They really can entertain you!

  11. Once again, I was having a rough morning and then there was Ivy and Gracie. They remind me of my two. Thanks for putting a smile on my face.

  12. Life with a kitten in the house is so much fun! Their antics can be hilarious. I daresay Ivy likes the “intrusion” of Gracie. She stimulates Ivy and gets her some exercise. Plus, Ivy can pull rank and smugly keep Gracie in her place. Just like having young kids in the house. I love watching the different personalities and behaviors of my furkids! Enjoy your babies!
