After forty years of unrequited love I finally get to experience a semi-cuddly cat who tolerates being held for more than 20s. It feels good.

Aww, you are so lucky, and I am so jealous! Enjoy your cuddles

I am! He was initially very cuddly when he first arrived but then I lost his trust when a few poopy incidents caused me to have to wash, shave and wipe his butt. It took a month to gain his trust back and also for him to stop freaking out at loud noises or flinching as if constantly expecting to get hit

Also cat balls are so cute. Something about being fluffy. Like bunny tails.

precious floof!
