My best friend and her boyfriend of two years recently moved in together. They have a blended family of sorts; she brought her cat Fluffy and he brought his cat Snowball. At first, the two cats didn’t seem to like each other. They had each been used to being the center of attention that it was hard for them to tolerate one another.
To bring Fluffy and Snowball closer together, my friend bought them new cat toys. She put all of the toys in the center of the room and the cats came running. They sniffed around for a while and then began enthusiastically playing together. Now they are all one big happy, half furry, family.
