Nighttime is the Right Time for Cat Fights

What is it about the sweet silent serenity of midnight, the beautiful bliss of 2 A.M., that causes my cats to think "Hm mm, this just might be the right time to gather under mom's bed and fight?"  What makes my cats think that 2 A.M. is the perfect time for ear-splitting caterwauling?  Do they not think that I, too, would occasionally like to enjoy that activity which they do in abundance, that activity being sleep ....


At times the under-the-bed cat fights are foreshadowed by ominous growling which I am unable to curb with my words.  I must climb out of bed and poke around beneath my bed with a souvenir hockey stick.  Not my favorite witching hour activity.


Other times it seems the cats stumble upon each other accidentally in the dark, and a shrieking match ensues ... right beneath my once-dozing head.


The odd thing is, my cats all get along fine during the day and early evening.  There are no day fights, no afternoon fights, this is strictly a nighttime hobby.  In fact they are often sleeping together on top of my bed.


Sweet dreams?  If only ...

Dogs Versus Cat Beds

Over the years I have acquired some of the cutest little cat beds ever.  Ultra-soft, plush, gorgeous designer cat beds. 

I have also acquired some very nice dog beds.  It’s too bad that the dogs never use them.  Why?  Because the dogs are always in the cat beds.  And where are the cats?  Anywhere but there.

Cat beds, once “christened” by the cats, are absolutely irresistible to my dogs, like "cat nip."  Yes, the dogs look silly in the cat beds.  But they also look completely content.

Snug in their little cat beds, the dogs are oblivious to the wicked glare of the ousted cats. Because as anyone knows, once soiled with dog scent the cats will never spend time in those beds again.

Dogs vs cat beds. Or is it dogs versus cats, once again?
