Floppy is a real gentleman. Early on Beba knocked heads with him and he showed her he was the boss of the house. After he established that, he hasn't hit her once. In fact, she still hisses at him and hits him as he walks by, and he just takes it and keeps walking without changing his pace or looking at her.

Beba had her teeth cleaning/extractions done a week ago. She's still temperamental, but has stopped attacking my cats at least, so she will be staying. While they had her under for her teeth, they found a tumor under her right rear leg. It turned out to be a benign mast cell tumor, and they apparently got it all.

If worst comes to worst, there's no problem with her staying here, there's really no fur flying and no real tension on the part of my cats. I just feel sorry for her having to live in a situation that's not ideal for her.

kyekeyf -- it folds over at the top, but it isn't needed, they've never tried to climb it. I have had foster kittens in it that have tried to climb out, as well as a feral cat an squirrels that occasionally get in (and usually, they never even think of climbing it and run along the base in panic). The wire mesh at the bottom is folded over and staked, and at this point, the grass has grown completely through it. This is the fence system -- you have to fix the URL --

I hope so too. But if it comes to it, I can do a better job finding her a perfect home than a shelter could. Maybe someone on here could take her! I'm about to spend $500-$700 on her teeth, so maybe that'll improve her disposition too. She's great with people though, she just hates cats.
