Interesting. These were older adopted cats; okay well my sister left them with me when she had kids. It was a fun transition for them. The one that took me as his master or whatever; hissed at me the first day so I raised my arms up and hissed right back at him. That was then end of that and he follows me around like a dog. It's always funny when he comes to comfort me when I get pissed off in a comp game.

I think I only had to do the gag thing like three times, he's a fast learner.

The pairs thing is actually important in my opinion, they like to play with each other once in a while or run around like idiots crashing into stuff (tile floors). My mum also tells me how he loses his shit when I go to work. I went overseas for a few weeks and when I got back he wouldn't leave my side for at least a week and I mean following me everywhere. I love cats, had em all my life.
