New Ever notice how you can usually tell a rescue cat?
Once they get past the trauma, they tend to be super-friendly. Cats supposed to be all aloof, but a lot of them show gratitude for a rescue for the rest of their lives.

I think there's something to that. But you also have to be prepared to put up with the ones who have had such trauma as makes them aloof to all bipeds ... for the longest time.

Garage Cat chooses to be a loner, mostly -- and obviously enjoys lolling in sun, etc. She now permits the occasional pick-up and head scratch, will also give an affectionate lick on occasion. By now she realizes that I don't intrude on her serenity, and she may mellow further. I no hurry.
