Can you scooch down a bit when you are sitting so there’s room for both? That’s what I have to do for our feline overlords.
I forgot your cats get on well too.
Depending on which pair I was dealing with I would be worried about getting ripped to shreds in the cross fire.
Some combinations of mine would be fine with sharing me, but some individuals really don’t appreciate each other!

Mostly, when Jasper isn’t being a pain. :D
 
No go. Éowyn does not allow him to be near me when she is. Not even opposite sides.
I think it sounds like Éowyn fits better in my cat household than yours, so whenever you are ready to surrender her I would be very happy to come and collect her.
Just saying.
 
I think a lot of creatures are like this. I also think it's not just about territory. Many creatures, despite all the various descriptions we've given them, are tribal. Humans are, again despite the sociological wish that integration worked.
Same breed, different tribes. For me it gets more interesting when one tries to work out what makes an individual belong to this tribe or that tribe when the obvious is not visable. This is where knowing the history of an individual helps.

It's an unfortunate current view that states we are all the same and then seperates out the differences under the umbrella of culture. Perhaps if we accepted the differences within a species and managed socities accordingly we would have less problems when trying to manage them.
I'm not sure I understand you. If I understood properly that you think differences with a specie that we are born with, are more important than belonging to that specie, I don't agree.

About cats anyway I think they are one of the animals I've met for which the notion of geographical space in the definition of territory is extremely important. In my experience they have acted tribal only because of being spayed /neutered.
