Travelling through Canada

The first of the drives was a little more difficult because Simon has never been on a drive that long. It was 14 hours about, and he was up and meowing for the first 5 or so. We were very relieved when he fell asleep and he then slept the rest of the drive for 9 hours straight. He used his litter box great in the car! Didn't really want to eat or drink much, especially after he fell asleep.

We got there and he was surprisingly calm about his new surroundings. We kept him in our bedroom for the 10 days we were there and he seemed totally content with it, it is a pretty big bedroom with a bath.

On the drive back he was such a good boy! Fell asleep within an hour of leaving and slept close to the entire time except when he got up to use the litter box.
We are all happy to be back home, I think this trip was good for him to meet a few close family members, and break out of his shell a bit. We discovered he seems to be less shy around women than men. He would walk right up to women that he'd never met, which we haven't seem him do before! Could it be he is growing out of kitten shyness, is that a thing? He is almost 7 months old.

Thanks for checking our trip pics out :)

Cats can do no wrong <3
He is so handsome!! Keep up the exposure and he'll continue to be brave and flexible to change.

I'm glad you got to spend the holidays with your whole family. :)

What a good boy! Kittens can definitely be shy, and some kittens/cats prefer women over men or vice versa, as do other species. If his breeder was female that may be why he is more comfortable with women. I'm glad he is growing in confidence and took to the road so well!

Great pics Grace! Since Kathy and Ashley are female, that may be why his preference is for women sounds like he did great!

Yes he was such a good boy! Wouldn't say he loves the car or anything but atleast was able to relax and sleep. His breeders are both females too so that makes sense.

Yeah that's what I figured the reason was, he still loves my boyfriend and he does great with him. But Simon makes it clear more so with me that I am his human!
