Awww.....darling Willow.Had another one of those big steps forward with Willow this afternoon. One fear she has had since I adopted her was having me anywhere near her food. Nearly ten years and no matter how hungry she is she will not eat unless I have left the room and am sitting down elsewhere. If I get up after she starts to eat, she will leave her food. This afternoon she was finishing up her dinner and struggling to get the last couple pieces of food that had dropped to the floor and were pushed under the lip of her dish. I couldn’t resist at least trying to help her so I slowly walked next to her, and darned if she didn’t wait next to her dish while I scooped up the pieces and put them back in her bowl. She calmly finished eating them without seeming to care where I was. Knowing her the next time I try it she will run like I have set her on fire but I also know if she tries something once she will probably repeat it again. It would be really nice to not have to wait until she is done eating to warm up my coffee.
