Please keep those updates coming in.
What a wonderful animal Pengy is. What a brave, special girl.
*She* is amazing...I'm not. I was the one who stuck her head under the bed long ago; I'm the one who's tried to touch her when she wasn't ready for it. Granted, I learned not to (thanks again, Hissy and all others here...), but I wasn't, at first, just letting her be herself.And of course, it is all due to the patience of a saint that you have! The willingness to let Pengy be Pengy, to let her emerge from behind that wall she's built up in her own time. You are both just amazing!
Michele, it's hard to believe that this is the same cat you described last year --the one who reminded you of Greta Garbo because she "just vants to be alone!"Originally Posted by Noni
Just that she's out right now, and hanging out by the coffee table...playing with something or other over there.
