With the closure of summer on the way, I've moved in with some friends, they are terrific people so things are good. All but the cats and the move, Smokey was terrified once I began packing things and wouldn't get near the cat carrier or me for over 2 weeks. I finally had to hire a professional cat wrangler to catch him and put him in the carrier, it took him several days to come out in the open and act like himself. Then it appeared he wanted to do nothing but attack Bandit, every time Bandit moved around Smokey lit into him, he was always getting yelled at and swatted.
Today Bandit decided when I moved his dish that he'd had enough change and attacked me, the front of my leg is scratches about 4 inches long and the back is 4 punctures be it from teeth or claws. Then he stood his ground and hissed and growled at me and crouched like he planned to attack again, I finally ended up grabbing the throw rug and tossing it at him to get him to back off. I'm not sure what to do with them, I take them in the 29th to be neutered, but if there is another attack on me I may have to turn them over to a rescue shelter.
Maybe the move was not a good thing after all, but I think it was for the best. I only hope my two companions settle down and accept it soon since this is no way to live for them or me.
