About Agnes
A delicate flower, Agnes is very, very shy and will need much nurturing, from afar, to start. She loves her hiding spots, whether under a bathroom cabinet or your couch. She is very receptive to cheek, head and under-the-chin scritches, which rev her purring engines -- but you MUST start slow and woo her with a soft toy before you touch her with your hand. When granted her privacy, with a closed door between your domain and hers, she emerges to eat and use the litterbox, and to enjoy resting on a comfy bed outside her hiding place. But as soon as you open the door to her space, she will scoot back into hiding. Other than wanting to remain hidden, Agnes does not exhibit signs of fear (such as hissing or flattened ears). An experienced cat whisperer who enjoys watching a flower unfold verrry slowly will make the best mom for Agnes. Her foster hasn't had her for long and is already noticing Agnes coming out of her shell more and more (especially for feather toys).
