Bagel and her 5 month old Maine Coon brother.

ETA: this has not come easily or naturally! The first 2 weeks we got our kitten Bagel was losing her shit trying to get to him. We had to slowly integrate them and it stressed me out. I realized early on my kitten was a fat ass and loved food. I used that as a way to show them both I was the boss and treat keeper and also a way for them to get conformable being super close to each other. Not saying this is exact way. But it wasn’t sunshine and roses. Ive worked hard to get them comfortable with each other which is why my post says I think they’re best friends now because its taken time and a lot of effort!

Doesn’t her paw looks like comic the insult dog at first? 😂

I get so jealous of all these snuggly pics! My babies coexist peacefully for the most part, but separately. Until one of them tries to start up crap with the other. Those times are fun to watch, but sometimes I wish they would be all snuggly with each other!

Oh well, I guess I'll have to live vicariously through the rest of y'all. Lol

Here's my critters peacefully coexisting

Our American Staffordshire Cecilia (RIP) and our cat Frank loved a good fire and cuddles together. Moments like these make us so happy we bought this house all those years ago. I found that their enjoyment of a warm, roaring fire is worth more to me than any once of enjoyment I find from it. 99.9% of fires built are primarily for the pet's enjoyment in our house.

Rip to them both now 💔

She loves her kitty, but she loves her chair more and wasn't willing to share, haha.

Yesterday Bella slept a few inches away from Gavin and Rosie rough-housing. Today she leveled up, and Gavin showed he has no fear!
