Hi Marylyn,
I just think that a lot of cats would want their own people, rather than
being in my noisy, chaotic house where it is hard for a kitty to get some
room to herself, and none of them really get enough attention (in my
opinion). But that may not be what she wants. It is difficult for me to
tell yet.
I will get some Feliway spray next payday. What do you think of the
plugins? Are they also usefull, or not?

putting feliway spray on your hand when you want to pet her. Honestly, it
helped so much with the Royal Princess Kitty Katt and with several ferals.

compassion and pity, you will have men who

She's MUCH better as of last night. Ate a whole bowl of food, and let me
come very close to touching her, then put her paw out to stop me (no claws
this time, though.).
I'm not sure of the next step. I can put her on anti anxiety meds, but if
she's ok with me I won't know if they are working. I don't think I can take
a chance on adopting her out at this point.
