*notices Kex' tension* *finally calms down* It's ok. *dries up her face*
*still holds Kex* Annanagram, would you please come up onto this table? I want to show something to Kex.

*strokes Annanagram with left hand while right hand holds Kex* Ok. Kex, can you stroke her? Feel her soft fur?

Kex · Post by **Kex** » 06-09-2005 14:34

*very nervous* Could you hold her, please?

< ---- Thursday

Sure! *picks up Annanagram and shows Kex that Annanagram cannot move when held this way* Be gentle!

<----- Annanagram

*don't move or say a word*

Kex · Post by **Kex** » 06-09-2005 14:40

*slowly sticks out hand and touches Annanagram*
*almost immediately takes hand back*
*tries again* You're right, her fur is soft. That's why I was told, never trust the outside.

*get hurt by these last words* Right. *close eyes*

Kex · Post by **Kex** » 06-09-2005 14:45

*steps back*
*stares thoughtfully at the cat*
*eventually says* I don't know if I will ever trust you, but I don't hate you. And I promise, I will not treat you as an ordinary cat, and I will not treat any other cat like I treat you. Is that ok for you?
