Tanner and Pirate are what I would call Frenemies. They seem to love to antagonize each other on a daily basis. They have a routine now...so I think they secretly enjoy tormenting the other one.
Example One:
Pirate gets brushed in the mornings by Auntie. Tanner and I play in the hallway, or in the kitten room. Tanner blocks the door, so Pirate can't get out of Aunties Room. Pirate then lays on the stairs, so Tanner can't get by. Tanner runs by anyway, and Pirate chases. Both boys get called down. Every morning!
Example Two:
Pirate goes into the litter box. Tanner comes over and blocks the door. Pirate runs by, Tanner chases, both boys get called down.
I think they secretly like one another, but they are picking on each other all the time it seems.
Do you have frenemies at your house? How do you handle it?
I think we do have some frenimies here. But it is hard to say there are so many members of this family. We have two that like to chase everyone and they do get called down. One is a year older than the other and he has stopped chasing a little bit. It is interesting to see who gets along with who. Have yourselves a super week end.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah...Kristopher likes to run up and kiss an innocent kitten on the head, the hiss and run away!
ReplyDeleteI think we all are, to a certain extent, frenimies at my house!
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming to my birthday party!
we are that way too, especially when our humans are around. but when they are not we get along weelll sleeping next to each other in the humans' bed.

Baby here. Jack and I are littermates, and he is dominating (less so since getting sick), and I think he liked the chase. It revved him up. I liked it if I could get a good move in on him (I have more agility), but most of the time it got irritating for me.
ReplyDeleteWe are the best of friends most of the time, but sometimes we have to put on a show for our mum and dad.
ReplyDeleteI think they have a special game they play with secret rules. Me and Simba are bestest friends although sometimes I do annoy him playing when he doesn't want too. He gives me a little whap then :o xx
ReplyDeleteAww beautiful Tanner and lovely Pirate!! Sounds like you both love teasing each other!
ReplyDeleteTake care

Kali and Simba are our frenimies. Boy boy just can't do anything right in her eyes. Sometimes when she gets mean we yell at her and she stops. Sometimes she actually plays with Simba.

Oh, yes! All three here are frenemies, but Pooh aggravates the Patches and Snookums more than they do her. They seem to have times they are frenemies and other times they more or less ignore each other. They never play together. Hugs and nose kisses
ReplyDeleteErnie likes to do stuff like that to me sometimes. He can be a real pain!

YES! There are frenemies at our house, too! Mebbe it's just sibling rivalry. Mom says sumtimes we make her crazy before noon. MOL!Have a pawsome weekend.
ReplyDeleteSylvester and Felix are that way, it usually ends up in a rousing game of Chase. Although sometimes Felix gets hissy so we intervene with the water bottle.
ReplyDeleteIt must be that way in every household!
