Bodacious Blanche is Baffled

Hi, my name is Blanche Deveroux (a Cornish Rex) and I was named after the flirty character on the TV show, The Golden Girls.  I pretty much live up to my name and "my people" say I'm bouncy, bubbly, blissful and a blue-eyed blessing to them. 

Actually, sometimes I feel like sitting in the corner and crying because my fellow cat, Pepper, will simply NOT be my friend.  I've tried everything -- I gently head-butt her, lick her head, and even fall down on my back in front of her as I try to get her attention and show my humility. 

She just hisses, growls, and bats at me.  I've been in the household for FOUR 4 months.....it seems Pepper would get the hint that I'm not leaving and would at least be civil to me.

At one point I thought I was making progress because Pepper didn't run away -- but she wouldn't let me inside the blanket with her.  Another day, I REALLY thought things were better but that was short-lived.

One cool morning, Mom was surprised to find us both in the cubicle.  See how humble I am?

 
Pepper started licking me and I thought,  "Oh, boy, progress!"  Then two seconds later she started biting my ear and hissing.

Sigh......oh well, my new mom and dad are really nice and I know that they're my friends and are always available to pet me.  Dad is the one I hang out with the most because he sits still and reads a lot during the day.  Mom is always outside doing her thing with her flowers.

We wake up together and read the paper online.  

 Dad's such a pushover - just schmooze a little and he's my friend forever!

I can't complain all that much because I have good people but I still have high hopes that one of these days Pepper will be my friend, too.  
 
I'll just continue to find my way through each day and hope I'll have a better report next time.

A mystery to me:  They have these wonderful and lovely big white water fountains... but always seem to be closing the tops on them.  I wonder why?

A mystery to Mom:  Mom wonders why she finds little paw prints on her toilet seat if she forgets to put the lid down?
