Temporary Truce

This doesn't happen too often. (Note that Peanut is ever wary as I fiddle with my tripod and camera.)

Usually if Leo is this close to Peanut it's quickly followed by Battle Cats, BC for short, an eruption similar to... a rabid raccoon with a mouthful of mentos chugging a diet coke. It's something to behold! Chase scenes, standoffs, much hissing, growling, clawing and take downs.

Then there's Old School BC between Peanut and Punk... very martial arts, standing posture sparring and staredowns followed by explosive strikes. Boy Cat BC (BCBC) between Leo and Punk - which ranges from coy chases to alpha cat wars to touchy-feely smooch fests. What we really like to see is Trifecta BC when all three of the dirty critters are jumpin' in. Basically, if there is more than one cat around, it's rock 'n roll.

AND Punk doesn't usually want to share bed space with either of the other cats.

So, the three of them together and behaving? I had to take a picture!
