This is a picture of our window and window seat in the bedroom. Have to start with that, or the story is hard to tell...
Pretty much from day one, Scooter has climbed up onto the window sill of the center window in the picture. He wiggles in under the pleated blinds every morning just after sunrise. It's his private time & space, and he does it (mostly) quietly. He sits there for an hour or so and watches the sun come up, while the rest of us sleep. When any one of us get up, he work his way out and joins us. It's just one of the things he does, that show us how intelligent he really is, and something he enjoys. It's Scooters time to himself.
Jenny, on the other hand, is a lazy bum. She is always the last one out of bed, and I often have to physically move the 8 pound furry sack of wet cement off the bed, just to make it. When Jenny's asleep, Jenny's asleep. Until this morning...
Sugar and I are both sound asleep, when we are both awakened by a CRASH near the window. I wake up, and hear Sugar sleepily say, "Waz dat noise?" We both look over at the window just in time to see Jenny take a flying leap from the floor up onto the window seat, and then take both front paws and plant them right in the middle of the outline of unsuspecting Scooter. He can't see her coming as he's under the blinds, and the light is coming from outside, and our bedroom is still dark. When Jenny hits him, he gets pushed against the glass, and jumps straight up about six inches. Then, Scooter works his way to the edge of the blind, and pokes his head out to see what the hell just happened. His expression, is a mix of anger, surprise and then a final "WTF are you doing?!?" when he sees Jenny.
Jenny looks back at him with what I can only describe as a mischievous grin, and hops off of the window seat as she flicks her tail at him.
Scooter rolls his eyes, and tucks his head back behind the blinds to watch his sunrise. Now Sugar and I are both awake, and she asks me, "Did you see that?" I tell her I did, but don't really believe it. About that time, Jenny takes another headlong charge across the bedroom, up on the window seat, and with both front paws raised hits Scoots outline as hard as she can through the blinds. This time, it's hard enough to knock him off of his feet, and he falls off of the sill, under the shade, and onto the window seat. Jenny sees him coming and takes off before he can get his bearings.
Scooter, now mad as hell, takes off after her, and we hear another crash somewhere in the living room. And another in the kitchen. And another that sounds like there is going to be a clean up on isle 3.
I'm thinking those two must spend countless hours dreaming up new ways to mess with each other. Jenny, just trumped poor Scoots, and he's still stalking around here half pissed off....
