Higgs spent last night asleep on the matt in the bathroom - progress as she felt comfortable enough to leave the laundry where she has spent the last few days hiding.
I tried to brush the worst of the knots out of her tail this morning whilst waiting for the kettle to boil at which she ran away and hid in the laundry again. Meh.
James went to sleep on his favourite cushion last night and didn't wake us up demanding to be let out, and is in general much calmer - and is starting to use his old sleeping places.
He still (very much) wanted to go out this morning, but being an Evil Cat Owner I wouldn't open the door for him.
I am hopeful that Thief Of James will realise that he would like a cat, and that in the absence of my cat maybe he should man the fuck up and get one of his own - preferably from a cat rescue place.
Best not to ask.
Thrilling cat update:
