Let’s just say he’s rambunctious. I’m working with him. He chases kids and they love it. Moms not so much. Chases Chihuahuas, they don’t like it. ---

Yep. He finally calmed down at the Vet clinic. So, I still have hope in my heart. He gives Bayliss a wide berth. The Chihuahuas are just his size and they flit around and yap. Fun and games for JoJo. He saw and met Hari. That went well. The Siamese definitely noticed him. He hasn’t noticed them. This will be the BIG test. When it happens. I’m thinking he will settle in. ---

It’ll work out. (If he didn’t notice the Siamese, then I assume they didn’t attack. Good sign!) ---

> [@thorny\_locust](#): > > I’ve had a cat who was insane and nasty, by some meanings of both of those. Of course, that statement can be made about ALL cats! 😉 This SMBC cartoon is an accurate account of how dogs and cats were first domesticated: [![](https://www.smbc-comics.com/comics/1547299522-20190112.png) ](https://www.smbc-comics.com/comics/1547299522-20190112.png) I’m pretty sure this was sanitized for family viewing, and that what the cat really said was “Fuck Off!”. @Beckdawrek, we have faith in your god-like skills with animals. I’m sure Jojo will become a beloved member of your ever-growing menagerie! ---

He’ll calm down in about 4 years. Maybe. I feel for the Chihuahuas though. But they will learn, and he and Bayliss will become chums. ---

While JoJo is becoming acclimated to the chaos of the Wrek abode, I bet he is velcroed to Beck’s lap. This will be the time of relative peace. JoJo still has quite a bit of healing to do. So, he watches. And waits. I would dearly love to be there to watch this as it unfolds. This is better than TV any day! ~VOW ---

Do not feel sorry for the 2 Lil shits(a.k.a. Chihuahuas). They deserve it. Combined they probably weigh 8lbs. Noise level: front row, mosh pit at any Rock concert. Destruction level: 2 year old triplets and one Sears catalog. Irritation level: Sand fleas in your bikini bottoms, in July. Brains: Nope. 8 paws, 2 tails, 4 bat ears, Zero brains worth of headache. I really kinda like them, this way. 😊 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/big-bad-bad-bad-ways-to-go-home-yes-you-can-go-home-again/963092.md?page=5) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/big-bad-bad-bad-ways-to-go-home-yes-you-can-go-home-again/963092.md?page=7)
