. Just goes to prove that infinite patience pays off in the end :nod:
I'll have to try the ignoring thing a bit more. He follows me around, but I have yet to receive "kitty love" from my beautiful Binxy *sad face*
Raksha,
I gotta say patience as well, but most importantly, its seems that a little of ignoring can go a long way after all!
After 2 long weeks of hissing, growling, hiding and no interest in me whatsoever, my beautiful girl has just let all her guards down and we are enjoying long sessions of petting, head-butting, cheek-rubbing in a total calm and peaceful way! It's almost like a dream!
I can't pick her up yet (which worries me - how long more until I can get her inside a carrier to visit the vet??), and even though she's explored my lap and climbed my chest a little, she didn't want to stay. So maybe she isn't that kind of pet, just like mingking said!
But I'm just happy I seem to have a content pet at home now!
:-) :-)
I've just read through this thread now. Good to see she is settling into her new home. Can you check with her previous owners to see if they could pick her up? Or if she was a lap cat?
