When I first got Bramble as a kitten, I was told she got her name because of her prickly nature. She's never been aggressive (although she once bit my finger when she was licking meat juices off my hand after I'd been cutting up a joint!), but she still runs away when I walk towards her. She occasionally comes to me for attention, but only if she's got an escape route!
About half an hour ago, I looked away from my computer, and wondered where she was. It's been raining, so I had the back door shut with the cats inside. I could see Lily, but not Bramble, so I started to get up to check on her. As I did, I saw Bramble out of the corner of my eye. She'd been on the back of my chair all the time, and she's so settled she's still there as I type this.
This probably doesn't sound like a big deal, but it's taken 9 years to get to this stage, so I feel a great sense of achievement!
I couldn't reach my camera, so these were taken with a webcam, so the picture quality isn't great.
