It sounds great that he will sleep near your leg, that definetly means he likes you and will trust you alot more as time goes on, if you keep doing the awesome job you have so far! Him answering your calls is also a very good sign, piper will do this too, and I can look in her eyes from far away, but never when she is close and I am petting her... try to keep the pets light and soft the way he likes it, and stop that too before he gets too excited...
Have you every tried playing with a straw with you kitty? I play the under covers game with a straw in my hand, and they go nuts, and my hands don't get sratched this way...
keep it up and you will see the more time goes by the more attention and affection he will want! and ofcoaurse don't hesitate to post any concerns or questions you may have!
seeing how happy and relaxed Piper has become is so rewarding, the first few months we had her, her tail wagged when ever she was awake, and she hissed and growled if you approached her, just walking by her she would crouch into this scared don't hurt me position. we don't see any of this anymore and it is such a relief!
thank you for caring enough to help this kitty open his heart to yours!
