Glad his eyeball wasn't punctured. I was thinking of more than a scratched cornea obviously. Hopefully, the two of them will eventually get along or at least coexist peacefully. He's such a cutie, how can one not love the kitty. Love the pic of them together but sure sounded like a scary encounter for both Tig3 and you. Glad his eyeball wasn’t punctured.

My vet said he may just produce more wax than average, just like some people do. He's fine with me cleaning his ears periodically, so I'm doing that. I switched his cat food to one with less grain, so we'll see if that does anything. It seems to have already stopped the kitty farts. Herschel, I think Gracie will be able to boss Tig around for about a year. Then he's going to discover that he's bigger, stronger, and male. And that Gracie is a wuss. I'll be stopping him from bullying her, I'm sure. His predecessor used to beat her up from time to time. But phew, I never want to see another cat come towards me dripping blood from a closed eye. That was scary. He doesn’t have ear mites, Morton. My vet said he may just produce more wax than average, just like some people do.

Gracie looks healthy and seems to have overcome her serious health problems of the past. Tig 3 is growing, and soon will overtake Gracie in size. I wonder if somehow she may understand this, and be trying to control him while she is still able to [as if any of us really understand a cat's motivation!] Someday, I hope to see a picture of the two of them together, enjoying each others company! In the meantime, good luck being the referee! He looks so adorable and innocent in these pics, glad he is ok after this encounter.

Refua shlema to him. From the look of things, Tig's going to dwarf Gracie once he comes into his full growth. I hope they make their peace by then! I’m glad Gracie missed Tig’s eye, too.
