I always let the cat come to me going after them only ends up with bad scratches
try to interact several times a day as often as he will let you when he walks away board or upset let him he is more likely to come back[/QUOTE]


This is really good advice, to this day I never force Avery to come sit with me - he is free to come up to me for his loving and he is free to be himself and just sleep on his own. That was the advice I got from the cat rescue and it seems to work well for us.
