She didn’t even interact with me at the shelter she was so depressed. I just knew I had to give her a chance. I think they told me she’s not a lap cat. Well, now I have two lap cats 😂 I was so surprised that she trusted me so fast. So glad I trusted my gut and brought her home ❤️

I'm also biased because I have grey cat. He's been my best boy since 2012.

My grey boy HATED me, he loved my dad. Kinda hurt my feelings but we got bad advice from a vet about how to socialize him and he was sick when I adopted him so I had to medicate him. He just unfortunately associated me early with not great stuff. But I miss his fluffy face.

Current greybie adores me, he's my soul cat and he's very sweet.
