Five months after the new cat Drogon moved in, and four months after the death of head cat and diva Koosi, order has been reestablished in the household.

Mat, the eldest boy and the one who gets along with everyone, is now head cat. He sleeps on the left side of the bed and enforces discipline among the felines. When Drogon gets too frisky and attempts to wrestle with Saffy, who is extremely antisocial, Mat boxes Drogon’s ear. Drogon may sleep on the bed, but only at the foot of the bed. If he crosses the center line, Mat gives him a little slap.

Saffy has asserted her rights as diva—including a regular supply of Fancy Feast, which the boys only get as biweekly treats. She gained this concession by going on a hunger strike, during which she refused their usual kibble and deigned to eat only Fancy Feast, and only the Classic flavors. She also refused to drink water, preferring milk (Although sometimes, late at night when she thought no one was watching, she would get out of bed and eat kibble and drink water).

It was Saffy who was most distressed by Drogon’s arrival. Drogon, being overly friendly, would insist on joining her every time she went to the litter box. Luckily he has grown tired of these toilet chats, and now allows Saffy her privacy. In return, Saffy occasionally grooms him.

Saffy sleeps on the right side of the bed. With Mat on the left, Saffy on the right, and Drogon at the foot of the bed, the human has to scrunch up in the middle and avoid moving in her sleep.

Drogon, the only sociable one, gets to go out once a month—to the mall, or to friends’ houses. Lately he has been fascinated by the kitchen faucet—soon he’ll be taking showers. He has an enormous appetite, and his hobby is sitting at the window, watching the outside world, and wondering how he can eat it.
