which means that she lets us get close enough to feed her, but that's about it.
That's the #1 reason why I hesitat to get a cat. Who wants a pet that's not friendly. Some friends of ours have two cats, that they spoil beyond imagination. (It's really sick) But the damn cats won't let anyone touch them. They'll show up for dinner, and then that's it. What's the point?
I had a cat when I was a kid that was awesome. He was 1/2 siamese and 1/2 Maine Coon. Smartest cat I've ever known. Loved affection. The best part was he'd play fetch! (Hell I've never even had a dog that liked to play fetch!)
