My Charlie hides the minute company comes. He’s 7 so he’s not going to grow out of it ☹️. The second people leave he’s out and on my lap. Our other cat Andy (his brother) loves being the center of attention and is right there getting scritches from everyone.

Gryff used to be nervous and would just peek around the corner. Now, if my brother stops by, he just races out to greet him. And now he goes up to other guests, just not as enthusiastically, for pets and scritches.

Madoc and Arthur have always been really social. Probably because I raised them from such a young age, and people loved to come over and play with them.

Carys was so much older than those two, when I brought her in, and I think it's just a bit hard for her to get past her feral instincts. Even when she was still outside she was much shyer than her siblings. I gave her the temporary name of Mysterio because she'd never get close enough for me to identify her gender.
