Maya has been my cat since 1994. She has lived with dogs ever since. When I lived in Buffalo she always slept on my bed near my head and she didn't care that the dogs were on the bed.
Then almost 4 years ago, I moved Maya and the other cat Oscar out to my parents house, where I live now. I had to sell my house in the city and wanted the cats moved out first. When I moved the dogs and myself 9 months later, Maya acted liked dogs were horrible and very scary creatures! She wanted nothing to do with them.
Then 3 weeks ago, Maya started scratching to be let in my bedroom at night. Now she has made herself a regular feature and not just at nighttime either. She sits on the back of the couch while we watch TV and 4 dogs sit on the couch. She sleeps on the bed every night and during the day.
She is SO funny. It only took her 3 years to adjust to dogs in her new home. I am so glad she has forgiven me for moving her. I knew she wasn't scared of the dogs, that it was just her guilt trip to punish me for moving her.
Now she sleeps next to my pillow at night and purrs away.
