Spiteful and Hateful

Taki was in the living room playing today, Haiku and Sake joined us.  Sake hissed everytime Taki approached.  And, at one point, Sake actually advanced on Taki as if to slap at her, but refrained only because of my constant verbal reminder.  Taki knew to run away, or hide where Sake could not get her (under the TV cart, under the stroller).

Haiku put up with her, for a while. Taki even approached her and they sat sniffing each other for a while. But eventually, Haiku wanted nothing to do with her, also.

I played with Taki for quite a while, until she was ready for another drink, and a nap. 

After a while I went to use the computer, and Taki was roaming under the computer desk.  Haiku, whom you may recall, likes to play "fetch" knocked the remote control off the desk, right towards Taki.  It missed. I have to wonder: Haiku has never played fetch with the remote control. I told her that was rude. She knocked a pen off, then stopped playing.

I was hoping I could allow Taki the run of the house when I was not around, but today's experience indicates that would not be wise.
