Shy Finn
Finn has been with us for almost a month, but I have yet to cuddle her in my arms. She allows me to scratch her chin, pet her and brush her hair...but she refuses to be carried. I could only carry her for a few seconds before she starts squirming to get down. Ah well, maybe I'm just comparing her too much to Terry (who loves sitting on the lap and being hugged). After all, not all kitties are created equal.
I guess what draws me to Finn so much is how she is like so many people...The way she lets someone get close to her, but not close enough to make her happy (or to hurt her). But I am sure that like others, she just has to learn to trust a little at a time.
Well, enough of the Psych lesson. I asked my boyfriend which cat he prefers, and he said he likes Terry better. That kind of makes me sad because I love both our cats. To me, they are both equally adorable in their own unique ways.
