BILLY
|
|---|
Billy's transition into our family was the most difficult of all the felines. Not only did he have absolutely no interest in friendly interaction with any of the other cats (although he did hide out with Bitsy in the beginning), he wasn't all that thrilled with me either. He did seem to find Joe's presence somewhat more tolerable and would even seek the occasional pat from him. Mostly though, he just wanted to spend every possible moment outside away from us all, contemplating the cruel twist of fate that had delivered him into this asylum of unfamiliar faces.
He's really not as tough as he looks; he just thinks he's as tough as he looks! Billy is one of two half-brothers (the other being Bitsy) whom we adopted as adults a couple of years ago. Their elderly caretakers had both passed away, leaving a home with two small dogs and six cats without their people.

Over time, Billy has come to appreciate his home here. He now willingly enters and spends significant time in the house. He purrs, he plays, he victimizes poor Capri anytime he thinks he can get away with it, he patrols the barn regularly and sojourns into the woods at the edge of the horse pasture, he steals the ancient cat's incredibly expensive special kidney-diet food, but most importantly, HE LOVES ME!
