Shy Rescue Cat Met Her Perfect Human And Then Gained So Much Confidence She Learnt To Trust
Some rescue cats take one look at a new home and decide the safest move is to hide. Anya was one of them, a shy foster cat who needed time, patience, and a little luck before she felt comfortable enough to show her personality.
