A major attitude adjustment is needed with Jemma and Tucker.
Eureka!
Bob and I are making an adjustment. We don’t have to be able to pick them up often. What we really want are lap kitties and they already like to sit with us once we put them in place. If we continue to bring them to us in the evening for a couple of hours, we think they we learn to come on their own accord. What do you think?
By noon, Tucker was tired of being ignored and left on the chair under the dining table. He came to me. I was on the sofa writing a scene in longhand from my upcoming novel, Perfect for Framing, and Tucker walked by. I said "Hello Tucker" but did not try to pick him up. He turned and nudged his head under the cover. I lifted it and let him in.
Now, if only Jemma Kitty would do the same.
