I have been pet-sitting with Ginger for over two years now. She is never happy when her owner leave her and she makes it known to me with my first visit to the house. The first time I ever visited her, she hissed, growled and stalked me everywhere I went. Now I can pretty much walk by her during her hissing and growling without fearing being attacked from behind! She makes a great watch cat! After about the second day she loses her need to guard the first floor and changes her post to the stairs to the second floor. This last visit, one on of her not guarding the doorway days, I was in their kitchen putting mail on the island when I felt her rubbing against my legs and a little meow came out versus a hiss! I held perfectly still, once I moved and looked at her she hissed though. But we definitely made progress with me sitting on the floor and
the help of her favorite treats! This is a video of our peace work progress.

That is so cute-you re so patient! You'd think after two years Ginger would be a little more appreciative! I know I would be!
