Charley
Savannah Super Cat
We have had Jengo now for 1 whole month. So far, he's been just great. As he gets more comfortable I notice he has a million times more energy than he used to and totally needs to play for several hours a day. Atleast now he can play by himself or with me and is good about that.
Sadly, he won't sleep in the bed with us. For 2 days after his neuter he would wake me up and come to bed but that's it. He always sleeps on the floor on my side of the bed (sometimes he goes into his pet bed which is also on my side of the bed. I'd like him to sleep with us. I've tried spraying pheromones (Comfort Zone) and catnip on the bed to avail. He just plops down on the floor??? Tips?
We are also trying to get him to be more of a lap cat and I've noticed that he would rather sit between our legs if we have a blanket - kind of in a kitty hammock or he'll sit on the back of the couch, he's totally good about being pet but I'd love for him to get cozier. I have been doing little tricks like giving him treats to get on my lap or letting him play with some strings on my lap, even wearing hoodies so he can play with the hood ties and those things work for a minute but when he gets bored he moves on. Funny thing is he LOVES to pet and will flop down randomly and roll over on his back - kinda wish he'd do this on the couch. Tips?
Thanks for the feedback
