Just Wanting to Brag A Little

[bellaandme]

There's small accomplishments every day with Turtle. Last night was a big one. She was asleep on her recliner when I turned off the TV and headed to bed. Before I could even get to the bedroom door, bam, there she was, sitting on my pillow looking t me. She waited until I got comfy and then, finally, she took her position curled up against my chest!! This is a FIRST! She stayed with me most of the night. I could reach out and touch her little body and feel her purring. She acted like she had been sleeping next to me like this her whole life.
And one thing that is just as sweet as that is, right now, as I type this, she is curled up on my lap!! Oh Happy Happy Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AW Cheryl, SEE Turtle is becoming the little sweet cuddler of your dreams

 

[mystik spiral]

That is SO sweet! There is nothing better than curling up in bed with a purring kitty. I knew Turtle would come around!

 

[stephanietx]

I am SOOO happy for you!! What huge accomplishments!

Isn't it funny how, sometimes, it seems like there is a switch that gets thrown, and they're suddenly cuddly?

I have always wondered if some touch re-awakens an old, pleasant experience.

I have seen shelter cats go from "touch-me-nots" to lap cuddlers in one day.

I knew it would just take a little time before Turtle decided she could open up and show her affection. I'm so glad to hear it!!

What a sweetheart.

Little steps ARE a HUGE deal! I'm happy you can brag.

 

[larussa]

I am so glad that Turtle is making you so happy and visa versa.

You let her decide at her own pace, and she tested the waters not long ago, and now after some thought, she's decided that cuddling with her Meowmy is a good thing!!

Through your love and patience, she has come to trust you.

Yay for Turtle and for you!!!
