I KNOW IT HAS BEEN A WHILE BUT I FIGURED WHAT COULD I SAY ABOUT HIM THAT HAS CHANGED? WELL REALLY NOTHING. BUT NOW WE HAVE NOTICED A CHANGE HIM. I THINK SOME MAY BE HE IS GETTING OLDER OR I ACREDIT IT TO MR. TRIBBLES OUR KITTEN. WELL HE WILL BE ONE IN A FEW WEEKS. BUT THIS KITTEN HAS BEEN CHASED ATTACKED AND BITTEN BY HIM.. BUT HE SEEMS NOT TO BE AFRAID OF HIM AT ALL. I WAS DOING MY BEST TO KEEP HIM FROM GETTING HURT. WELL IT STARTED WITH HIM JUST EYEING HIM DOWN. THIS SEEMED TO THROW MELVIN A BIT. SEEMED LIKE HE WOULD LOOK AT HIM LIKE WHAT THE HELL. SOMETIMES JUST WALKING AWAY, CONTINUEING ON TO HIS DESTINATION. THEN SOMETIMES HE WOULD ATTACK HIM. SO I WOULD STOP TRIBBLES FROM LOOKING AT HIM LIKE THAT.EVEN WITH ALL THE SHOVEING HIM OUT OF THE WAY HE STILL WOULD WALK RIGHT UP TO MEL AND LOOK HIM IN THE EYE. I BEGAN TO THINK WELL YOUR NOT A TINY KITTEN ANYMORE AND IF YOU WANT TO BE STUPID MAYBE YOU SHOULD LEARN THE HARD WAY. SO I STOPPED. I THEN FOUND THAT MELVIN WAS EITHER JUST STANDING THERE OR HE WOULD JUST LEAVE OR THEY WOULD START TO PLAY! WELL YOU GET THE IDEA THE KITTEN IS NOT AFRAID OF THE DOG... IT IS CUTE BECAUSE THEY PLAY LIKE THE OTHER CAT WONT WITH HIM. TRIBS HAS BEEN KNOW TO AMBUSH HIM WHEN PLAYING FETCH WITH US. WHEN MELVIN IS DOING HIS LLAMA LAPS HE HAS BEEN KNOWN TO JUMP OUT AT HIM AND JUMP ON HIM. HE WILL STAND BEHIND HIM AND BAT AT HIS TAIL. I HAVE ALSO SEEN HIM GO UP TO MEL AND JUST SMELL HIM..THE CHANGE I HAVE SEEN IS MEL IS GOOD. HE IS MELLOWING. NOT SAYING HE IS NOT AGGRESIVE STILL BUT BETTER IN SOME WAYS.. LATELY WHEN I FEED THE TROUPS HE IS IN THE MIXED OF THEM NOT ATTACKING NOT BEING A CRAZY MAN. JUST STANDING WITH THEM WAITING FOR HIS FOOD TO BE PREPARED. SOMETIME IN THIS TRIBBLES WILL GO UP AND HIT HIM AND HE WILL SNARF AT HIM BUT NO AGGRESSION AND THEN HE LEAVE. MEL STILL LAYS AND WAITS FOR PERMISSION TO EAT AND ALL. SO I HAVE HAD MELVIN IN THE BATHROOM WITH ME AND ONE OF THE OTHER CATS WILL COME IN AND I WILL SAY YOU BE NICE (MY OWN FEAR OF HIM DOING SOMETHING) BUT HE WILL OFTEN JUST LOOK AT THEM AND LEAVE THE BATHROOM. REMEMBER HE IS LITTERBOX TRAINED AND THAT IS HIS BOX IS. IN THE MORN. HE COMES IN AND GOES POTTY WITH ME. HE STANDS BY MY FEET WAGGING AND HAPPY AND WANTS A LITTLE BUTT SCATCHIES. SO HE IS GETTING ALONG BETTER WITH THE CATS.
OVER THE WINTER WE HAVE BEEN LETTING HIM SLEEP ON THE BED IT IS COLD IN OUR HOUSE.. BUT ANYWAYS. WHEN WE WOULD HAVE TO GO IN THERE WE WOULD MAKE HIM GET OFF AND GET OUT OF THE ROOM. THEN WHEN WE WERE DONE WE WOULD TELL HIM HE COULD GO BACK IN. A FEW TIMES HE WOULD GROWEL AT US, BUT THAT WAS BEGINNING TO STOP. HE EVEN GOT TO A POINT THAT WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE SHOWER HE WOULD COME OUT OF THE ROOM WHEN I OPENED THE BATHROOM DOOR. NOW WE CAN GO IN THERE AND HE IS NOT PHASED. HE WILL WATCH ME SOMETIMES JUST LAY HIS HEAD BACK DOWN AND RELAX. I HAVE LEFT HIM IN THERE WHILE I DRESS AND HAVE EVEN SAT ON THE BED. I HAVE LINGERED NEAR THE BED VERY CLOSE TO HIM AND NO REACTION. SO THAT IS PROGRESS. SAME THING WITH THE LIVINGROOM CHAIR..
HE HAS GOTTEN BETTER WITH THE DOOR TOO. HE WIL STILL CHARGE IT BUT I SEEM TO BE ABLE TO GET HIM BACK AND SITTING QUICKER. HE WILL STILL SIT BACK AND BARK BUT HEY HE'S NOT CHARGING SO I AM HAPPY..THE FRONT WINDOW TOO. I HAVE FOUND THAT IF HE BARKS AT SOMETHING OR SOMEONE OUTSIDE IF I SAY GO LAY DOWN HE TAKES THAT AS GETTING OFF THE WINDOW AND GET AWAY. HE WAS NOT TRAINED THAT LAYDOWN MEANT LAYDOWN THE WORD FOR THAT IS DOWN.
HE ALSO SEEMS TO WANT TO JUST LAY BY MY SIDE WHEN I AM ON THE COMP OR WHATEVER. HE LIKES TO WALK NEXT TO ME WHEN I AM WORKING AROUND THE HOUSE OR GET UP TO DO SOMETHING. IT IS CUTE ALOT OF TIMES IT IS MELVIN AND MR. TRIBBLES FOLLOWING ME AROUND. SO I AM BEING FOLLOWED BY THE BEIGE ANIMALS IN MY LIFE.LOL.
I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT THE OTHER CATS STILL CAREFULL AROUND HIM SEEM TO HAVE LET THEIR GAURD DOWN A LITTLE. THEY SEEM MORE RELAXED.
SO HE HAS BEEN A PRETTY GOOD BOY LATELY.. STILL A PAIN TO HANDLE WITH BODY CONTACT. LIKE LEASHING NAILS,AND MUZZELING, BUT HAY I WILL TAKE WHAT I CAN GET FROM HIM..HE IS SO DAMM CUTE..OTHERWISE...MY HUSBAND DUE TO A NEW FACEBOOK FRIEND REALLY WANTS ANOTHER CHIHUAHUA. HE HAS BEEN READING UP ON CHIHUAHUA RESCUES LATELY.. STILL A LITTLE SCAREY BUT I THINK WE ARE GETTING CLOSER TO BEING ABLE TO. THANKS FOR THE RESCUE INFO HOLLYE..
IN CLOSING IT IS HARD TO HAVE A DOG LIKE THIS BUT ALSO A BLESSING. HE HAS MADE OUR LIVES VERY FULL AND FILLED US WITH KNOWLEDGE WE MAY NEVER HAVE KNOW. THINGS HAPPEN AND COME INTO YOU LIFE FOR A REASON... FIGURE IT OUT DON'T ALWAYS RUN FROM IT. LOVE YOU MELVIN AND MR. TRIBBLES..
