i am well pleased you have made suitable arrangements, it was your OC that
even started on that path, it is what my grandmother died of, they too
gave her five weeks and she lived ten years, not all pleaseant, but she
was able to visit europe with help from my mother and brother, Lee

Although I am sure Simon would agree because he is such a nice man, I
have been to his house to meet his wife and see his chickens. and it is
far too near a very busy main road to be safe for Boyfriend.
I've already arranged where Boyfie will go if the worst happens. Debbie
Wilson will take him. She is a member of this group, although she
rarely posts now, and is experienced in rescue and difficult shy cats.
Although it might be traumatic for him at first, it will be a far more
suitable home as he will be able to go out safely eventually and wander
like he's been used to.
Anyway, I'm hoping it does not come to that.
I've already far exceeded the life span I was told I had (they said
weeks in 2005) but it's been 7 years now and I intend to make it much
longer ;-)

Simon is the only visitor that Boyfriend will tolerate. He's my ex
welfare officer from work and now a friend.
When the doorbell rings, it always sends Boyfie upstairs like a
racehorse to his bedroom before I can open the door.
He never comes back downstairs as long as they are there, no matter
how long it goes past his teatime.
For some months, it's been clear that "Simon is different"

A couple of months ago, I actually thought that Boyfie was going rub
his cheek against Simon's leg, but he chickened out.
Yesterday he came back downstairs, Simon had one leg across the other
IYSWIM with his foot up. Boyfie came towards his foot, looked at it,
I thought he's going to do it this time, but it was still a step too
far.
What Boyfie did was curl his tail around Simon's ankle for a few
moments and then disappear outside.
It made me feel quite emotional.
Years and years this boy has been afraid of visitors, even
June who has fed him for weeks has no concessions, he hides from her
too if I am home.
