it shouldn’t surprise people that respecting a cat’s boundaries (i.e. ceasing to pet them after they paw at you) helps them trust you more

Bathbomb was dropped off at my apartment very abused and scared he hid in the bathtub for an entire 24hrs. he barely/if ever ate for about a week and didnt begin exploring the apartment until 3 weeks in

it was a month before he came up to me and it was hard but i sat kinda near him every day i would treat him like he was a new cat and let him smell me before trying to pet him and if he even looked uncomfortable id gently stop and just sing or talk to him

now he climbs on my back and jumps on my shoulder if i dont pay attention to him so it takes work and time

cats are like ppl and have triggers and quirks and trauma and we have to be respectful and gentle its not that hard of a concept

this is an Important Post but my favorite part is that your cat’s name is Bathbomb

I’ve talked before about jacks arc being about learning to trust and value the women around him, but I also love that flint functions the best when has female partners who share his goal…

I think the points in the story when he flails the most are around mid season 2 and early season 3. When he’s attacking the fort mid season 2, he’s managed to completely alienate both Eleanor and Miranda, but gets his shit together once he actually listens to Miranda, gets Eleanor back on his side and gets the help of Abigail.

Then in season 3 his descent into suicidal insanity coincides with the death of one of his female partners and the other being sent off to prison. He regains his sense of purpose right when he gains the partnership of Madi and the queen.

Like, he’s amazing and respectful with women and also just seems to be able to work better with them. And I love that all of these relationships are genuine, mutually beneficial partnerships and alliances, not any sort of “man just needs a good supportive woman” bullshit.
