Housemate is moving out

My housemate is moving out this month and I'm not sure how Alfie is going to take it.

My housemate has been living here since I first bought the house nearly 7 years ago. He previously lived with us whilst I was renting for about a year as well, but had very little to do with Alfie during that time.

Over the 7 years Alfie and my housemate have bonded. It took a long time but Alfie shows a lot of interest in him and will let him give him scritches through his cage and out of it. I think Alfie actually prefers my housemate over me at the moment. So I'm worried that he's going to take the move pretty hard. Similarly, I think the cats will find it hard too. They don't spend a massive amount of time together but Alfie does show a lot of interest in my housemate when he's in the room.

It's not that we'll never see him again - he'll probably visit when the lockdown rules start being relaxed (whenever that may be) but obviously that's different to being here all the time.

I always knew this day would come round eventually. It's going to take a while for us all to adjust. I only spent a year or so living on my own previously. I've always had housemates or was living with family prior to that. So it's going to be a bit weird to not have him around any more. Might take us all a little while to adjust!

Don`t sell Alfie short when it comes to change.

Two years ago I lost my wife of 47 years and Corky went through her grief with us.

She has adjusted to life the same as she would have to in the wild.

When you share life with a grey they become more like you and vise a versa.
