I have a special place in my heart for senior pets. My Dachshund<\/a> is 15 years old and can still have some pep in her step, though she spends much of the day napping. Our fur babies may slow down as they get older, but they still bring so much love and joy to their families.<\/p>\n

Xena the orange cat<\/a> and her 16-year-old feline sister, Cheese, are in the older generation bracket and their reflexes aren’t what they used to be. They recently got into a scuffle, but it moved at a snail’s pace.<\/p>\n

In the TikTok from @ashandjay04, Cheese sat on the living room rug as Xena walked over and gave her a hard glare.<\/p>\n

“Get ready for a geriatric cat fight,” the onscreen text cautioned. “Slowest fight in world history.”<\/p>\n

The two stared each other down for a while before Cheese started “shifting to get ready” for some sort of slow-motion rumble. She wound up and landed the first swat on her ginger sister’s face, breaking the silence.<\/p>\n

“Ginger processing…” the onscreen text explained as the two resumed their staring contest. Maybe they were both contemplating some strategic moves, but there was no action for quite some time. Xena looked around, almost like she forgot they were fighting.<\/p>\n

Then, Cheese made her second move with another swat to the face. “Ginger brain cells loading,” the story continued, as the affronted feline looked at Cheese as if to say, “Bring it on.”<\/p>\n

Sluggish Swatfest Continued<\/p>\n

Though no one would call this a nail-biter, the quarrel continued with Cheese packing another punch on the top of Xena’s head. A Calico cat<\/a> appeared in the background to see what all the ruckus was about. Xena took note of the audience and checked behind her to make sure the Calico didn’t move in for a “sneak attack”.<\/p>\n

Once again, Xena looked a bit lost until yet another cat entered the scene. At that point, the ginger hightailed it out of there. She knew when she was outnumbered.<\/p>\n

Followers got a kick out of the slow-moving squabble and shared some comical comments.<\/p>\n

“Ginger kitty is like ‘I’m too old for your nonsense’,” one remarked.<\/p>\n

“Let me tell you something… wait, hold on… who are you?” another joked.<\/p>\n

“Orange cat looks like she frequently forgets what she’s doing,” a follower noted.<\/p>\n

“She\u2019s trying to remember how she used to throw hands back in the day,” someone posted.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, these two felines will make up \u2014\u00a0if they remember they argued.<\/p>\n
