Molly has drawn her line in the sand at the threshold to my bedroom door. Her roommate mandy is not allowed to cross that line or there is a price to be paid. That price usually involves a lot of showing of teeth, growling, and some occasional biting.
Molly is a real slob when it comes to eating. There is usually food left on the floor whenever she gets through eating. Last night an interesting scene unfolded. Molly left a kernel of food near the threshold of my bedroom door. Mandy walks up to the line and starts eyeing that nugget of food. Molly has her back completely turned to Mandy and she is washing herself. Mandy keeps cutting here eyes at Molly to see if she is paying attention. This went on for about 30 seconds until Mandy decided that it was safe to snatch that morsel up. As soon as Mandy stepped into the bedroom, Molly whirled around and chased her back out. Molly was paying much more attention than she let on and she quickly let Mandy know that "That is my food!"
