Bit of a long one but we got our cat as a rescue about 6 years ago. From the outset she was anti-social at best and downright vicious a lot of the time.
We tried various different things to help her but eventually accepted that she wanted to keep out of our way except for brief interludes where she came down to eat or attack us. When I became pregnant we were worried we would have to rehome her but she didn't attack me once when I was pregnant so we decided to wait and see.
Once ds was born she was completely disinterested in him for a good 6 months. However now for the first time, she seems to actively come and find us in the house, she sits on my lap while I'm giving ds his bottle and purr away quite happily and she keeps head butting ds and trying to put her scent on him.
She's like a completely different cat. I could understand this change if it occurred when we first brought ds home from hospital but it only really started when he was about 8 months old. I can't think what else may have prompted it so now I'm starting to worry that she might be ill! Has anyone else experienced this??
