Cats are funny creatures. And I mean that in the most loving adorable way.
My babies Maggie and Sophie have never liked my dad. If he came for a visit they both would run and hide. Until now........But they still aren't huge fans of him.
Since I was in the looney bin for 5 days dad came to my house twice a day to feed and water my cats. He even stayed for a couple hours one day so the kitties could go play on the back porch. (Thought I had died when I heard dad did that!)
So now Maggie doesn't run and hide from him but she won't be friendly towards him either -- he can get a pet or two in. Sophie on the other hand has turned into a little hussy. She will come and rub up on dads feet, fall all over his shoes, rub against them, you would think his feet was made out of cat nip or something.
So something good did come out of my hospital stay. My cats can finally tolerate my dad, and I found out just how much he likes them (the 2 hour stay so they could go on the porch, that was way above the call of duty.)
Hope everyone is doing ok.

Cats only care about who is feeding them. They own us not the other way around. My Sebastian is still a sick baby. Tammy

Your father is a good man, and deserves the affection of your kitties. I can see how much he has your affection, too. Margo
Isn't it amazing how careful cats are with their trust. It takes so much time to get them on your side -- unless you are in charge of the food. LOL

That was great of your Dad to look after the kittie while you were away. I'm glad they are finally warming up to him.

Cats are funny that way aren't they?? Glad they are softening up to your dad.
