Our kitten Kismet is so skittish! Bowser is such a snuggler... We can carry him around like a baby, he sleeps with us, etc. Kismet will come sit next to me (not on my lap, but near me) when I watch TV, but only if i'm very still, if I move, she's out of there!
Maybe some of this can be attributed to the fact that she's a shelter rescue, or maybe she's got got a catitude? At first I thought she was just a little busy-body, too curious to sit still for a bit, but now i'm not sure. Any tips?
