Far and Away

I'm thinking of you Zoe and cat

I'm so sorry for your loss

@Zoe7

Thanks @oceangirl 😺

@Sans911 Hey Hon - how has your day been?

That is sad about your neighbour @Sans911 Maybe you could acquaint yourself with the new neighbour and use helping in the garden to begin with as an ice breaker - that way you could help keep it up to it's present standard and subconsciously impart that desire onto your new neighbour

Little Clio sounds like she is full of beans and very dominant - poor Mr A must be wondering what whirlwind has entered your home ...but they will find their place. Cat would not have a bar of Clover for the first month or so but towards the end they could sit together at the door. Clover was the same with Cat as Toby when she came to us - just wanted to be friends and play - thankfully Toby accommodated from the beginning ....it has been really good for him to have a play mate - he always wanted to play with Cat but she was her own little individual and tolerated Tobes (typical big sister lol).

I think what you are doing for this new client is wonderful - you have so much to give Hon, so much knowledge, so much experience and so much empathy - they are lucky to have you helping out

Clover has the quietest little purr @Sans911 You have to be right next to her to hear it but I do hear it often ...not like Cat - she had the most gorgeous purr (I recorded it on her last night with us and so pleased I did - I must have known ) Mt A and Clio will find their places once they settle more with each other. Puttin Clio off the bed will show Mr A it is still his space and Clio is being 'allowed' to be there. It does take time (and a lot of patience) but putting those boundaries in for Clio now will help in the long run.

I was super lucky that Tobes accepted Clover on the bed from the beginning. For the first few weeks she slept next to Tobes but has now moved to the pillow (on my head lol). She is getting bigger too so way more fluffball on my head

Now let's talk about those doubts of yours Hon - I can fully understand having doubts but you are not only capable but smart, experienced and most importantly ...ready. The last few years have been so hard for you but you have not only come through but also gained valuable insight that will be such an asset to helping others. I have no doubt what so ever that you can do the job - and excel in it ...Team Zoe cheering you on all the way 🎉
