Ginger and Penny's continuing battle for alpha generally takes place as very short spats.
As Ginger has come to realize, screaming loudly, literally SCREECHING when Penny confronts her is more effective than using claws, therefore she is employing this technique more and more. Penny is the stronger, tougher kitty, but Ginger has the shrillest screech!
Tuesday night, as I was preparing food dishes, Ginger was in the kitchen counter window, and Penny and Ferris were on the floor. I had my back turned to them, washing the cat bowls, when a terrible caterwaul came from the window, followed quickly by a very loud thump.
I spun around to find Ginger sitting in the windowsill, glaring down at Penny who had just leapt off the counter at Ginger's scream. I guess Penny had wanted to look out the window, but Ginger said "No stinking way, BACK OFF, you stupid Bengal!"
Then last night, I was asleep, it was after midnight, when suddenly I was startled awake by the sound of Ginger SCREECHING at Penny from just inside my bedroom door.
I remember waking up enough to say, 'Girls, please, no fighting in my bedroom." Then I passed out again.
This morning, I saw Ginger take a swipe at Penny just because she was running past her.
Oh, those two...they really do crack me up!
