Bentley, yes that is his name, is doing great! It is amazing.....the 3 cats and 2 dogs all get along great. We are truly blessed. Bentley and Remington like to play with each other rolling around, wrestling, chase, etc. It is funny though because it is quiet play, they don't make any verbal noises. Tank and Bentley like to play together on the roof and climb together. When we are in the front yard, often times all 3 cats are there playing around or laying around together. It is very cute. Bentley and Winston, our miniature schnauzer, love to play chase in the back yard. They take turns on who is the chaser.
Bentley loves balls. We have gone camping a few times this summer so we had a friend stay and watch the kitties, aka...spoil the kitties. They discovered that Bentley really like ping pong balls. All you have to do is drop one and he comes running. A few weeks ago Steve and Ty brought home a used ping pong table (it currently sits in the front yard). Remington likes to sit on the table while we play while Bentley hangs out below waiting for a ball to land on the ground and he can pounce on it. We have learned to play with 2 balls. He also loves tennis balls. He loves to chase them and carry them around. We need to see if he will play fetch.
Bentley also likes to eat my pansies. His first time outside, he walks outside to my garden and start to eat all the pansies off one of my plants. Silly kitty! Oh, he loves toes. He flops down all cute like on our feet and then starts chewing on our toes and as soon as you move, he attacks.
Surprisingly, Bentley doesn't really drool much anymore. He does have a chronic running nose/sneezing thing. It comes and goes. We took him in and they said they don't think it is anything except maybe seasonal allergies. They suggested we put Lichen (sp?) on their food to strengthen their immune.
Bentley is doing great! We feel so lucky. He is great addition to our family and everyone seems to love him as much as we do. Thanks so much for bringing him to our family!
