On-brink-of-cat: Please celebrate with me PT friends

Congrats on your new cats!!! I can't wait to see pics!

Oh I love the name of Sligo- I thought Sly-go right away and I think it is a great cat name. A cat who swats you in the night is a curious cat and will soon be a cuddly cat. I hope you figure out one of 2 things: either where you put your camera or how to download from your mom's

It might take a little time.. they're probably very shy after all the changes in their lives recently.

It sound like things are going well and I'm sure you'll be getting some cuddles from your boys very soon. I too hope to see some pictures of your boys.

Thanks, all. I'm trying not to get discouraged. The boys have had huge changes in their lives over the last few months. (But I did hope they would come around sooner than they have. )

It took Charlie (who used to be a Calvin) several months before he came around. He had a hard time before we adopted him. But, I am so grateful we did. He's a velcro kitty. Wherever I go, he is my shadow. When I go to the other room, he follows. When I get up to go to the little girls room at night and come back to bed, all I hear is a series of "meow, meow, meow" until I lay down and start petting him.

I know you want them to be there with you showing love and affection, but give them a little time. It will happen. Don't give up on them.

It took Kimba about 4 months to really adjust. He had been abandoned twice and he just wasn't ready to trust people. I couldn't blame him at all! Now, he's the biggest lover of all my cats. Just loves laps and gives almost non-stop head bumpies and purrs. It will happen, just give it some time. Loves and kisses to your boys.
