Scouty the Brave

You know how chicken Scouty is - she runs away and hides under the bed
if anyone comes to the door and she doesn't recognise their voice...
and even if she DOES recognise them she hides in the craftroom just in
case she was wrong. Dan (our landlord) came over yesterday to collect
the rent and she was under the dresser. We had to go into the
craftroom to measure up the closet doors and she was curious enough to
jump up on the desk and sit in her box to watch us, half-hiding behind
the rack of skirts I had hanging up to dry. I turned around and
noticed her and told her she was very brave, and Dan turned around and
admired her and she didn't run away! So he went towards her and held
out his hand towards her. He didn't try to pet her this time, but she
sniffed his fingers with interest and I told her what a good brave

Cheryl...

She sure is! I remember how proud I was of Bonnie one night when a
friend was over for movies, and she came downstairs where we were.
He ignored her (he knew she was there, and loves cats but knows her
history) and his ignoring her had her so curious that she actually
approached him and let him pet her head. :) I was just truly
amazed.

girl she was :)

Karen...

Did the other girls come out to see what was going on, or did Scouty
turn out to be the bravest this time? :)

Betty also would also generally hide from visitors, but if I carried
her over to them, she would give them lots of headbutts.

Karen AKA Kajikit...

Tessie loves Dan so much she wants to go home with him... but then she
loves almost everyone :) And Silver demands her share of attention
when he comes around to collect the rent. Dan says he's not mad keen
on animals, but he's certainly got a good touch with them...

Christina Websell...

Oh, she really was. Give her scritches from me for being such a brave girl,
Boyfriend is nowhere near this stage. If he hears the front door bell ring
he hurtles out the back door like a bullet from a gun. He might be fast
asleep, he might be eating but if that bell rings, he's outa here.
