Glad it all worked out
I'm glad it all worked out with Thomson. So many people who have "trouble" pets just abandon them or even have them put down!
I think a lot of people have trouble with the idea that animals DON'T think like humans, even our most domesticated house pets, cats and dogs, are still animals with instincts and intrinsic ways of understanding their world.
Articles like this should remind people that our pets don't always understand us, and we often don't understand them. Instead of throwing in the towel, often we just need to think about the problem from a different (more pet-centric) perspective!
The background you find out about cats, and how they were originally domesticated, is great. It really paves the way to understanding more about why they behave the way they do!
