Well it wasn’t so much as a breakthough as an acceptance of Zou for Henry to be top bun – (don’t forget they were out to kill each other before!!) instead of moving off when he approached,
One day she suddenly let him lay closeish to her without her getting up…. then he sort of romped forward towards her….he licked her back first, then when she realised he was being nice, she licked him back and the whole room sighed with relief !!
So there really was a point where I said, yoohoo, that’s it…. I stayed by them overnight but absolutely nothing else happened.
Can you close the area in more now….? to say a couple of foot by a couple of foot…..? I don’t know if that will do anything, but I don’t have anything useful to suggest….
Our living room is already really tiny! And they’ve not been allowed access to the rest of the house yet – I’m trying to be patient. Thankfully my partner is off work for a week so hopefully by then, the mounting will have ceased, or at least Peanut will be mounting at the right end lol. Til then, I guess just constant supervision. I’m looking forward to a good night’s sleep
