Such a change in company and surroundings can be hard on a 12 year old cat and, as the sign on the door of her cage warns, Lily is "extremely stressed!"
When I went to visit her earlier this week, she seemed a little confused as to how to respond. It was like she wanted to make friends, even coming forward to greet me, but then she would suddenly remember she's in a strange place surrounded by strangers. And then she'd suddenly be swatting me out of her personal space.
Still, she looks like she has the potential to be a pretty neat girl once she gets over the shock of the new environment and begins to adjust to shelter life.

It's interesting. I asked one of the volunteers to speak Mandarin to her tonight and she responded quite happily!!!

She did however give someone a nasty bite on Monday......
ReplyDeleteLily followed me around the Moorehouse room last Sunday. She positively demanded attention. I allowed her to dictate the amount of affection as I scratched her head. She seemed to enjoy it. She is very treat motivated.
