When Dolce and Bella didn't get along


View this clip on Vimeo

When Dolce was younger, her sister and her did not get along that well. Bella was a little choked that some other thing was taking her place as the baby girl of the family. Dolce just did not know what to do about all these large cats, for other than her mother she had never been around other cats.

But Dolce was a brave little soul and nothing seemed to phase her. As much as it freaked my wife out, Dolce was a natural born climber and explorer. The funny part of this video is that Dolce didn't start out with a hiss when she wanted to stand up to the other cats. She had the most unladylike habit of spitting at the other cats. Turn up your sound volume and you will hear her spit when she first comes near Bella.

Smudge may have learned to swear under his breath from me, but i think Dolce learned to spit from my wife. She's going to kill me for saying that. That's okay, our couch is pretty comfortable and I know if I sleep on it, Smudge and Dolce will join me.

  1. Our Ralphie spit at Trixie when we first brought him home. Norton actually took over as his surrogate mother because Trixie was so jealous. After 16 years she mellowed and didn't have such a fit when we brought home Sammy. By the time we brought Miles home, she just paid no attention to him.

  8. I don't hear the spit. If that was me an Bonnie, you'd hear her growling at me, hissing a few times, and then you'd see her run off. Can I play with the pink ocapus at the end, too?
