Last night I went to bed despairing over ever making Sophie comfortable. It isn't that I took it personally.....I clearly know that I had nothing to do what happened to make her so mistrusting of humans. I was just despairing over my lack of skills and patience to wait months! A friend had just told me it might take a year.
This morning, I gambled $30 for a little bottle of cat pheromones which I sprayed 8" up from the floor on every furniture leg in Sophie's room. There's a noticeable difference! Sophie is now comfortable with me at 2 feet! I can move, even stand up, within 2 feet of her and she doesn't run away. Tonight I am going to spray it around for Miki in the hope that he will stop yowling and let me sleep. I wonder what would happen if I sprayed some on me?
