I am new here, and my kitty's name is Gayla. She is a rescue cat and has thoroughly captured my heart. She is also my first pet--and I'm in my 60's! I've had an 'empty nest' home for a while now, and my newly married son started sending me pictures of his two cats, and a few months later, I decided to get a cat as well. TBH, I was fearful of cats my whole life, until this past January. I still get freaked out inside when she hisses or suddenly swats at me. I hope this forum will help me to grow in confidence that way!
