I know you hate meowchat so, to quote what my cats would say "Cats just know
these things;" Like how they can know the mailman is coming when they are
still out in the street. They just know.

Simon is an ex-counsellor & befriender I had, provided by my workplace. I
was bullied by a manager when my performance fell when my mother was found
dead, but apparently it's OK to do that as long as they were seen to do
the correct thing by providing a counsellor after bullying me into
clinical depression.

Anyway, I'm fine now, thanks to Simon and he visits me occasionally.
Simon is the only person that Boyfie does not flee from.
So yesterday, when the doorbell sounded Boyfie did not move from his chair
where he was snoozing. Normally if anyone knocks on the door or rings
the bell he is off to the back door to escape.
I knew it was Simon, but I can't see how he did.
We talked for ages with Boyfie asleep but twitching his ears. Just before
Simon went home Boyfie got up, went over to Simon and invited an ear
scritch which he got.
The only person in the world who he ever allowed to touch him except
myself.
