I divert my eyes and if I happen to make eye contact, immediately do a slow blink at them. Blinking is a sign of greeting in a feral colony. I still blink at the ones that are on the shy side and it seems to help them a lot.Originally Posted by chowchow
Wow, 11 out of 12 sleep with you, that's so awesome!! Did you have to avoid eye contact with each of them before they ever let you pet them?
