2 thoughts: when a cat is stressed they will shed. If you are in upper midwest, it's not quite spring shedding time yet. If lower midwest, you may be right about her winter coat.Originally Posted by killerapple
Batman likes to great her with licks, but she must be shedding her winter coat and she must not be grooming herself very well - so he gets fur in his mouth and then that annoys him and he leaves.
I'm waiting for her to lick him back.Unfortunately she's very non-reactive to him - she either lies motionless or she'll lower herself down a bit.
But don't you stress if she is slightly stressed. You've brought her a looooooong way so far and she'll continue to improve at her own pace.Originally Posted by killerapple
That makes sense - I wondered if it was stress actually. I also wondered if maybe she doesn't feel at home enough to give herself a really good bath and relax like she would outside. Like how you might not want to crawl into a hotel's bath-tub because you worry it's icky or worry someone's filming you?
Batman was licking her ears last night - so cute. She closed her eyes.
I'm enjoying the ride. It's slow, but I have been very happy with the past week.
She is a smart girl!!Originally Posted by killerapple
Last night I got woken up to hearing a ball (with a bell) rolling around in her room.
This morning when I went in, all of her toys were by the screen door!!! So she indeed plays!!!!!!!
She is a quick learner indeed!
The part of me that has been feeling bad for her (thinking she's bored out of her mind) is sooooo relieved about this!!! I think her days have gotten WAY more stimulating.
