If I left the bathroom door open when I was in the shower, sometimes Timothy come in and put his face against the glass door of the shower. He would stand there for a few seconds while he made sure that I was there. I opened the door a couple of times but he made it clear he had no intention of getting in!
I never knew what the pattern was, but sometimes he’d settle down on my jumper if I left it on the bathroom floor (after first digging through them to make a nest with a suitable pillow). If he wasn’t feeling great or was unsettled, I’d make a point of leaving the door open and clothes on the floor – then he’d ALWAYS accept them, and I think, he very grateful.
