Two years later they are healthy happy cats that I love dearly.
How are the cats doing currently, still happy?
They're a bit leery of the vacuum cleaner, they run from my mother's voice and they have a deep hatred for her slippers.
The behavior of most of domestic animals is mainly observed by how we treat them. If we treat them with good care, love and compassion, they will definitely show the same love and respect towards us.
That's good.
I appreciate your kindness and I know for certain your cats do as well. You have a good sense of empathy and I am glad you share it with others.
