OK - so I'm smitten. Shoot me!

When Rhiannon first came to us, she was absolutely terrified by the shelter environment. She'd come to us as a stray who'd bonded well with the people she adopted, but didn't get on with their other cats.  Adjusting to the shelter with different volunteers every day and a heap of other cats proved rather overwhelming for our tiny girl.  She spent the first couple of months or so spitting and scratching at anything that came within range, and to tell the truth, we were getting a little worried.

However over the last few weeks, patience and persistance have paid off, and her fear barrier has finally broken!

Now, as long as it's reasonably quiet, she'll be out of her basket when you open her cage door and demanding cuddles for as long as they're available. She's even discovered the joys of tummy rubs!

However she does seem a bit more reticent with people she hasn't quite learned to trust yet, so we'll need whoever adopts her to be a very patient person, preferably used to dealing with strays. We're not sure how she'll react to another change in environment, so you'd need to be prepared for a possible period of fear-based aggression until she adapts to a new home.

Underneath it all, she's a loving little sweetie, so if you've the time and patience to help Rhiannon to settle into a new, permanent home, why not come up and meet her?
