(9,651 posts)I rescued an abandoned cat. It took her a month to trust me. When she got to that point, I started getting gifts. I told her that I was quite fine in not receiving them, even though I appreciated the sentiment.
I never got another gift. But I got a lot of love!

Now that is a good friend.
