I tried tonight to get a video of Ishtar and Mabel interacting. And by interacting I mean hissing and growling at each other. Unfortunately the phone image was too dark and the camera’s battery died. So… here’s a photo of Mabel she’s staring at Ishtar.<\/p>\n

There is much growling from both sides of the room. Ishtar is on the couch and once I type enough words I’ll insert the photo of Ishtar so you can see her. Look closely at Mabel’s face. See that white patch near her nose. Yeah, that’s how I know this is a picture of Mabel. In person I can tell she’s Mabel cuz she’s not as “beefy” as Ishtar. It isn’t that Ishtar is fat, she’s just, a beefier build than Mabel. Ishtar is thicker, and even her tail has more meat to it, So yeah, that’s how I can tell them apart. OK perhaps that’s enough words typed so now I can insert the photo of Ishtar for you to see the difference.<\/p>\n

OK, see there, this is Ishtar, see her face, there’s no patch of white on the left side of her nose.\u00a0 The fact that she looks so much like Mabel is what made me think that I had to take her home with me. I guess I’m a sucker, sure… and now my nose is insane and I’ve got the croakiest voice ever. Yeah, two cats might just be one cat too many for me and my allergies to handle. But with a job, I can once again afford to buy Zyrtec. I’d better get on that ASAP.\u00a0 I’m not sure my nose and throat can handle much more of this drippy nonsense. But Ishtar is incredibly friendly and she purrs and likes being petted. I think once the two of them agree who’s in charge and realize I like them both (although Mabel will always be told she’s the best kitty ever) they’ll settle down and be friends. Hopefully it’ll be all good and I can then type in peace without someone pawing at my arm begging for attention. Yes, Ishtar has been sitting beside me the whole time I’ve been typing this entry begging me to pet her. Poor kitty… she’s been hiding from Mabel for so long she’s now begging for attention.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
