Sometimes I get freaky when a new person comes to our house -- especially really tall men. My mom has lived with me for 11 years and has only heard me hiss twice. Both times were at tall men who were visiting and encroaching on my space. I turned sideways and puffed myself up to show them how huge I am. I was ready for battle but luckily Mom noticed and asked them to respect my space. I now know that if we have a visitor, I can run to the bedroom and Mom won't let anyone come in there. It's my space. I appreciate that. I just sit in there all night and hwen Mom comes to say a quick howdy, I purr to let her know.

Still, sometimes the memories of my past are too much and the only place i feel safe is hiding in my litter box. My Dad custum built this box that I jump down into. He did it to minimize my tracking litter in the house but it is a true fortress that no one knows about. So sometimes i hide there when I am afraid.

I'm getting better around strangers now. Since they don't come chasing after me and my Mom tells them to act indifferent, I come out of hiding to see what everyone's up to. I like circling the room and making an exit. As long as no one tries to touch me! I'm overcoming my fear one day at a time.
