Fat Frank and Old Henry... not my names for them. They came with them.
Henry in 2011.
Frank in 2018.

Cute names, why not? ๐น

The two girls who brought me Frank, the orange one (because I wanted Henry to have a buddy)... they just dropped him off and quickly split. He has a bed wetting issue. I think he was abused. Took my woman a while to train him. He used to hiss at me all the time.
There were a few times I felt like just letting him go outside... but you can't do that. I accepted the responsibility.

Yes, it might take time and patience to heal a traumatised animal and with cats it's sometimes hard to even tell what makes them feel uncomfortable. They look really cozy together and accepting the responsibility deserves respect!
@m0xee @Turkleton
He's family... he adores my woman, and funny... if she raises her voice or gets agitated (with me, or on the phone with someone)... he's the barometer. That would sometimes set him off to pee.
With me, in the last couple years, once in a rare time, he'll rub against my leg. I say, "thank you." He hasn't hissed at me for a long time. He has been a life lesson in patience, which is a good thing.
