I want to hear the stories and stages of your cats (some or all) as they grew to love you and bond with you. How did you know they finally trusted you and enjoyed living with you? I also want to hear vice versa.... how it happened that you bonded with your cat, if it wasnt immediate.
I will start
With Morgan, it has taken him a long time for him to let me put my face up to his face. Up till about 2 or 3 weeks ago, he wouldnt let me kiss his face. He would pull his face away. From the start though, he has let me rub his belly and pick him up all I want.
With Abby, we are going much slower with each other. She finally started kneading me. Shes done it twice total
She still will not let me touch her chest, lower legs or stomach. I think as she has started trusting me more and not acting aggressive, I have felt closer with her. She is ALWAYS rubbing against my legs though. Shes started to seek me out, especially in the bathroom and wants me to rub her head. She also now sleeps by my head in my bed at night
That really makes me feel fond of her.
Jayce has been pretty easy. I think hes the sweetest, easiest cat. Ive bonded with him more because of his minor health issues and because hes like a wet noodle. For him with me, I think it was almost immediate because I havent really had any issues with him.
