Apparently the only scent I wear is cat pee, according to my coworkers, but that's another thread:p.
I don't smoke. She is a LITTLE better. She ate enough canned food to produce a bowel movement. She's still not eating what I think she should, though - especially since her former guardian said she was a very enthusiastic eater and would make friends with the person who fed her.

Kelley, Do you wear any scents....or are you a smoker? It may take her a while to get used to your smell....or lack of if her owner used perfume or smoked. *Kelley Saveika <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>* wrote: No, I don't think she is feral at all. Her ex-guardian had her since 8 weeks of age, per the medical records she gave me. (she's had WAY too many shots, IMHO - the vet we have inside Petsmart here seems to be quite the ripoff joint). She doesn't seem to like my voice, she bares her teeth and hisses at me when she hears it. Seems pretty indifferent to other cats so far (I shoo them out when they go in her room, but she pays no mind to them).
