My first post so hi all , im curious as to why my almost 2 year old "Fancy" mix Lizzy will only let me touch, pet and or cuddle with just me. She's not aggressive at all. I sometimes visit my mom who has two cats of her own and after a few hours of a little hissing/growling she's playing trying to chase them and even rolling over showing shes not a threat....though she does love to fight off her back lol....But if any "human" tries to touch her besides me she leans away and will run away if necessary. The only time other people can touch her is if she's laying in my lap, i'm holding her or they have food lol.....
I'm not a super social person and really i'm a bit anti-social and i've been accused of making her the same, but i try my best to allow her to be social without really pushing too much. But as i said she observers and unless there's food involved there's no contacted happening....
Also i call her a fancey mix because my vet thinks she's likely a siamese mix. She's spayed but not declawed and she lives with me, my dad and a 12 yr old maine coon mix "Simba" whose pretty much a push over for her which is funny considering the significant size difference lol...
Backstory - i adopted her from my g/f at the time who was a bit of a cat hoarder lol, she was born in and lived in a junkyard for the first 6-8ish weeks of her life before being adopted along with her brother Samson & sister Witchy. I stayed 2 weeks with my g/f at the time while she was around 3-4 months and she immediately took to me and pretty much everytime i returned she was the only cat in the house that immediately recognized me and would loved on me right away. From then till now 90% of nights she sleeps with me and even during the nap a lot im her "cat" bed lol.
if my post seems jumbled apologies and the pic is her as a kitten, i know i need a newer one but i haven't got around to it....
