So today i thought i would try and reintroduce Peanut to Fudge and Fluff. Fudge and Peanut have always had a tense relationship, which has involved a bit of chasing.
I put all three in the bath this morning and they were watched over by the OH and my daughter while i scrubbed the playhouse out. I threw out all toys and changed the layout so it was all new to them.
In the bath Fudge was docile and calm, snuggling up to Peanut. Fluff just ate :roll: Fudge seemed to really make an effort and was licking Peanut several times. Fudges head went down, but Peanut just ignored him. In fact when i encouraged Peanut to move he went to the other end of the bath and began thumping.
We left them for longer and again Fudge tried to cuddle Peanut. Fluff flopped down next to them both and Peanut was just sitting there. There was no fighting or anything so i decided to put them into the playhouse, larger space to see how it went.
Once in the playhouse, Peanut ran up to the top shelf to sit by the window. When Fudge approached him Peanut legged it. Fudge went after him but the chase ended without any nipping. Fluff was exploring while that happened, but then did go up to Peanut and licked him nicely.
Peanut is still sat in the same place, not interacting. Not mooching, not anything I know they are not fighting, but does Peanut's disinterest in the other two mean he really doesn't want to be there?
