Our little Boomer is finally settled and much better now. Wow, what a stressful 3 days it was. By the 4th day he was so much better. No more swatting, no more lunging. Just a calm kitty who wants lots of attention which he is getting from me for sure. I have been able to kiss him on the forehead, numerous times. I laid on the floor and let him climb on my head with his two front paws sniffing my hair. He lays in my lap now and just wants to snuggle with me and purrs like crazy. Here are pics of my visits with him. We are both so much more relaxed now. He still tries to get out when I come in but the towel helps and the "back up back up" does the trick every time now.
