I really must register my disappointment with Agent Mulder. He has been attacking me on a daily basis. He has no reason to do so. I have done nothing to provoke his attacks. He hisses at me and slaps me for no reason. This is not something I am accustomed to. We are adult toms, not kittens. I think that his behavior is out of line and I respectfully request that he be disciplined for behavior unbecoming a tom. There is no reason for him to attack me. It is not something that I am used to and I believe his behavior is unprofessional. If he has a problem with me, he should put it in writing and submit it as I am doing so with this report. We cannot work together when he is attacking me. Even the humans remark on his behavior. They do call his name and say ‘no’, but it doesn’t seem to faze him. I really feel that his behavior merits some sort of punishment.
I do not understand those same attacks. We used to have such a good working relationship and it saddens me that it seems to be over. I have noticed that the humans do seem to be annoyed when Agent Mulder attacks me. I am sure that they are not pleased at his continued attacks.

With all due respect, I am not attacking Agent Smudge without cause. He knows what the cause is. It is a private matter, just between the two of us and if he feels so insecure about his own actions, then perhaps he needs to examine them a bit more. I have reason to be angry with him and he knows it. He knows what the reasons are and he knows that it doesn’t involve the mission we are on. He is only pretending not to know so that he can ease his conscience. Well he can’t ease his conscience that way. I won’t allow it. if you censure me for my retaliation against Agent Smudge for his behavior then you had better be ready to censure him for his behavior.
I’m tired of Agent Smudge’s poor little me routine. He’s an adult cat and he should learn to take his lumps as a tom and not run crying to headquarters. He has responsibilities and he should live up to them. There are certain behaviors expected of every tomcat, but he hasn’t even tried… well that’s private and it should remain so. I do not mean to imply that he is shirking his duty to the League. He isn’t. the issue between the two of us is private and it is my belief that it should remain so. Agent Smudge is trying to take it public, but I think he would regret that as he won’t show up well. I’m sure that he simply hasn’t thought it through and that once he does, he will withdraw his ridiculous demand that I be subject to reprimand.
