After about two years our Sofietje finally sleeps on a lap. That is a milestone for her and for us. We always have had cats who jumped on our lap when we sat on the sofa. But Sofietje was not that socialized, came from a breeder to us when she was two years old and was not so fond of people.
The closest she came was next to us on the sofa.
Or safe in a corner.
Sweet dreams.
Sofietje is most beautiful and looks very comfortable. She has adjusted well and is lovely. Have a wonderful day :)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenWow! Two years. Now that's being cautious. :-)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenShe looks content in all photos so you are doing something right to make her feel at home!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat means one thing : now , she trusts you , and loves you . What a gift!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI'm glad she has learned the warmth and comfort of her humans' laps. She is a beautiful girl.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenShe looks very peaceful and content with her life.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAwwww, so sweet. So happy that the kitty is now so comfortable with you that she can be close.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenWhat a little sweetheart! I used to have a cat that would follow me around waiting for me to sit down so she could jump in my lap. She slept with me every night too. I really miss her.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenZo schattig! Jullie hebben haar vertrouwen gewonnen.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYou wonder what goes on in these little heads sometimes.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDearest Marianne,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenWell, as they often say, they become more affectionate with age... That might be the case with Sofietjes as well for being suddenly more sociable.
She looks mighty sweet though and enjoy this tenderness. It is sad that most of their character had been build before you even got her. That also shows that the breeder did not give her the affection needed to learn how to cuddle up with their human family...
Hugs,
Mariette
Boy is she a sweetie!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenShe is such a sweetie Marianne.. I bet it was so worth the wait :) I really must go and rescue another cat, they are so adorable.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYou have to be very calm, that the cat does not wake up.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenoh cute!!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHow sweet!
