Black cats cannot be with anyone else once they've found love.I think Simba belongs with you
Is that why Samantha has always been so drawn here to my house? I never thought about that..

Jen, that was a great idea to put catnip on your hands.. Maybe you should do that every day until he gets use to your hands near him.. At least he is eating now and I bet by the time I get back, he will remember you and how good you have been to him.....

If he is so afraid of hands, don't it make you wonder WHY? Only God knows what he has been through.
