I mean as in usurped. Taken possesion of something in the house.
I have. Alley has been a fraidy cat ever since we got her from the rescue center, sticking to the bed in the spare bedroom, the walk in closet, or underneath the living room couch.
There is only one thing in this house that I have considered truly mine, that being a massage chair in the master bedroom. I had always referred to it as "my chair". No longer. Alley has decided to take possesion of my chair and you can now find her any time of day in that chair.
I like to use that chair before going to bed and upon rising in the morning. At both times I will now find Alley in the chair. When I try to shoo her off, she remains there until I finally push her off. She looks at me very indignantly for taking over "her chair" whenever I am forced to do that.
I never call it my chair any more.
Has anybody else here experienced such behavior?
