BANQUO – A1037237

SAFE 7/1/15 A staff member writes: A cat that will get along with any one is fine. But a cat that has issues makes you earn his trust, giving you a sense of accomplishment. Such is Banquo. He is friendly enough, vocal enough, soliciting attention in front of of his kennel. He will greet you enthusiastically. Lean into your petting hand. Show pleasure. He will give you nose kisses. Rub your cheek against his. Rest his forehead on your chin. But, will he allow you to pick him up? According to his kennel card, he does not like it. And that is his issue. And yet, something about the way he shows his love for humans will give you a hint that perhaps he will allow it if he is comfortable enough with you, and if you are considerate of the fact that he is no tiny six-pounder. (He is three times heavier than that). So, here’s the secret. Show him enough love for a few minutes until he is in a cuddly mood. Then slowly wrap your arms around all four legs and gently lift, making him feel that he is still in contact with solid ground. But this time, the solid ground is your chest and enfolding arms. He barely felt that he was lifted. In that way, he can stay comfortable for as long as your are. But you may not be, for long. He is an eighteen-pounder, after all. So, when you feel the need to save your back, put him down the same way. Give him the shortest airtime from your enfolding arms to the ground. This is best done if he is on a surface on a level with your chest. And now, you have accomplished something that others do not know how to do. And if you take him home with you, you do not have to share the secret with anyone. In return, he will show you the loyalty that Shakespeare attributed to his Banquo.
