Newman has a new suitemate this month, and he’s a handsome, bubbly black cat named Pyewacket. Lucky TeePee never quite made it to full-time FIV Suite status, as Tabby’s Place’s amazing veterinarian decided to take him home! Permanently!
Newman has had an active month, playing with Wolfie and standing up to Lester. Regarding the latter, the tables have turned in Suite FIV. We’re not quite sure what sparked it, but lately Newman has been fixated on Lester — and not in a friendly way. When Lester’s enjoying human affection, Newman will compete aggressively. Newman’s even been spotted stalking — then pouncing on — poor, oblivious Lester. Fortunately, none of these scuffles has escalated to the point of really hurting anyone, but we’ll continue to keep an eye on our brawling boys.
As for playtime, Wolfie came out of his shell a little and had a good time playing with Newman. I’m surprised Wolfie didn’t pull Newman, blanket and all, right off the chair. (You can see the whole adventure in the video below left.)
I know this isn’t the best picture of Newman, but I couldn’t resist including it. This is typical sweet Newman, who always comes over to give kisses as soon as the camera comes out! When I look at this photo, I see his sweetness oozing out of him.
Other than flexing his muscle with Lester, Newman’s enjoyed a mellow and steady month. And that is a wonderful thing. As they say, no news is good news!
Newman and all of us here at Tabby’s Place thank you for all you do,
and wish you and your loved ones a warm and wonderful holiday season.
