Ah. I've always felt some measure of success helping jumpy rescues get to the point where they could sleep through an overhead thunderstorm.
It took about 10 years before he would tolerate a chin scratch.

Poor little guy.
I was walking to my car and a cat popped out from an alley next to me. We both didn't see each other around the corners. I yelled in surprise and the cat saw me and bolted down the street. We scared the hell out of each other by accident.

Cat update:
Still a maniac, steals slices of bread, runner beans, spring onions, and eats them.
Sweetcorn and crisps are favourites, can't open either without being mobbed, will happily eat corn off the cob.
Thought she was going to be petite but has put on a good growth spurt and is now pretty well a normal size cat.

Goddam cat prised open one of the air vents and climbed into the AC system.
Luckily it was the one vent which has a cavity before the hose and she stopped there, and I happened to see her do it.

Dog update:

Looks like it has sage advice to give on kibble.
He's two and eats other dogs poop. So I don't know if I would go so far as to call it "sage" advice
But that's the most sage advice a dog can give, if you're a dog.
My cat eats flies.
She's quite good at swatting them out of the air.
