They seem to have quite an automatic response to food and affection. One cat in particular who had been with an old lady for a long time was really sullen when we took him away but was complete happy in his new home in a couple of months. We’ve just got Tommy the tiny tomcat (with the ripped throat) back after another failed adoption (and even a stay in the local kennels as no one could take him at all). He was quite unsettled and wary of me for a few days but has just fallen asleep on my lap after dinner for the first time again. His throat is still a bit raw, poor thing.
