Aslan and Diva

30th Dec update-
Aslan is coming on in leaps and bounds. He now spends all night cuddled up in bed with me and loves being petted as long as you're sitting down. Standing people are tall and scary apparently! I've also been able to handle pick him up and handle him by taking him by the scruff like his mum would have. He seems to have taken to me far more since I've been handling him like this and will let me brush him with his soft bristle brush. He likes that quite a lot. Because I can now handle him I leave the bedroom door open in the day for him to wander. So far he's only brave enough to come downstairs when the children are in bed but he is getting braver.

Diva has been helping him out again. She spent all day yesterday sitting halfway down the stairs trying to tempt him down. She's very patient with him although looks a bit fed up that he's so nervous sometimes! She finally led him all the way down the stairs when it was quieter in the evening and appeared to be giving him a guided tour of the living room! She's such a clever little cat!


Pictures from Dawn who adopted Aslan, a beautiful long haired, ginger male who is semi-feral. With patient handling Dawn is bringing him round slowly but surely.

Diva who is not feral at all is also helping Aslan lose his fear of people. Dawn says she is a little star.
